    Andrew and I build this with our Dad a few summers ago. It's 12x16 with a 12' peak.

    That is real cute - you're lucky to have such a great growing space. My greenhouse is still a distant pipe dream..sigh

    Sweet! I'm jealous. How do you cool it, if you need cooling that is...?

    Thanks guys! We have the misting system setup underneath everything and a large exhaust fan at the peak. Between that and the shade cloth when we have the occasional 100 degree summer day we can maintain around 88-90. Besides that there's no other cooling system in place. We grow all the cool growing plants in a tank inside so we don't have to worry about then when it gets that hot.
