"Greenhouse"

Today I tackled a greenhouse for our outdoor plants.  In the past I have stored them in the garage & storage shed or let them die.  I just hated having the mess and they took up all the garage space so...  I decided to construct a greenhouse, per say.  Here are my pictures.

I used 4 mil 20' x 25' clear plastic sheeting

+

+

+

using a 20' 1" PVC pipe, I started out taping with clear duct tape, then rolled for about 2 ft, then used ties.

I used a 15' piece of rebar, taped it to start the rolling (like on top) and rolled up about 2' and used ties to secure.  I used rebar because of the weight to hold it down.

Here is the rolled rebar edge.

Here is the finished project.  Inside the greenhouse is a metal shaded light with a 20 watt plant bulb secured and attached with an outdoor cord.
