Placement of 2 by 6 to sturdy up building. A little heavier than needed but want to the hoops to hold up to strong winds
Measure the distance between each hoop before bolting
A window is needed on the rear wall for ventilation
Taking a break after pulling greenhouse film over frame
Rolling front plastic around strapping before screwing to end wall
Looks pretty good in the snow
Small remay wind tunnel is set up by students to warm the earth before planting
3/4 inch PVC pipe to make hoops for
remay cover
Students transplant lettuce and spinach plugs from under the growlights in their classroom
Our second student built hoop house with compost bin. No artificial heat is required for this operation
Our garlic beds buffer the hoop house on the east side
Now we set up three temperature stations to monitor the greenhouse effect in our hoophouse
Fresh greens will be harvested all winter for our school lunches, the teachers, the Co-op and the local soup kitchen
One of the temperature probes is checked under the remay. The probe is set to take temperature at four minute intervals for 24 hrs. Bed depth is 10"
This probe will take temperature readings inside the hoophouse but outside of the remay
