Sherry,

Really good work! You will get a lot more growing in your zone.

Based on my experience so far with my removable greenhouse and hoophouse, it has made a very dramatic difference in my ability to grow plants. It has exceeded all my expectations! I am several months early for my zone. Its a great relief also not to have to worry about frost. I hope to have my first ripe fruits (Black Krim) in another couple of weeks !

My setup is a little more complete in that it has insulated panels, emergency heat, and thermostatically ventilated.

P.S. Be careful on a sunny day. It can get heated up really quickly.
