BEST use of your greenhouse (and my IKEA hack for it) 

Another great Greenhouse video. I really can’t stress how useful the way you basically mirror the outside by swapping things around. It’s been a game changer for me and I don’t understand why I haven’t been doing it for years.

Your greenhouse is so incredibly efficient. It is definitely the model to follow. Another great greenhouse video!

Ooh! IKEA recycling bins? What a terrific idea!

Well organised greenhouse Rhino are a great brand. love their greenhouses. Great video Eli

Got my green house this year after years of wanting one and I love it so much my peace and quite away for my 3 boys and husband, and all the wonderful veggies I am growing. Love the videos and you inspired me to get a quad grow for my birthday ❤

Wow, what a tidy and prolific greenhouse. Great advice for those of us considering adding one to our gardens.

Love this - been curious about your greenhouse. So organized, and smart use of your small space.

Fab video, I always wondered what size your greenhouse was because it looked taller than my one, I did think maybe you were just short 😉😀 It has a nice roof space to it. You are so right about being organised, I tidy mine up a lot but I always sling things in there when I'm working in the garden and it soon becomes untidy. I loved all your hints and tips, thanks for sharing them and take care 😊

You are a good teacher😊

Love the storage bins idea, thank you for sharing.

What a brilliant video! I love how simple it is to just convert growing space for you between Spring and summer. I’ve got an auto vent question please. How strong are they, particularly in the wind? It’s 40mph wind here today and I haven’t dared open my window, but it’s quite warm in the greenhouse too. Can you lock them when storms are forecast, or do you just let it still do its thing?

I just planted some tomato plants lettuce , broccoli still have cucumbers and peas and more tomatoes to plant it has warmed up quite a bit

Great vlog for greenhouse setup. Rhino may have an uptick in sales this week.

I have dug kind of down under my greenhouse about 18” to make it ‘taller’ but also to try to keep the temperature a bit more stable. This video has inspired me to get it tidied up a bit in the hope that it might eventually stop raining!

🐝Thanks for the great video🌻 I just love greenhouses !! Think all need one

In a greenhouse I used to have, plastic broke down and got very brittle. I switched over to aluminum containers to store my potting soil. We moved three hours away from where we used to live and I'm in the process of getting another greenhouse put together.

My greenhouse is not so beautiful as yours but I’ve enjoyed it and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how much wind it has withstood here in central California. Love your videos and I hope you have a great growing season!❤

❤I bought my greenhouse after your first videos about your greenhouse. Very informative! I don’t have power nor heat, but the automatic vents are a game changer! I love my Govee thermostat so I can monitor the temperature on my iPad in bed 😂 I overwintered herbs and greens for the first time - wow did they stay alive/grow strong. I hung solar lights in the greenhouse, but it’s mostly so I can see inside from above in the house at night. I bought a 6x8x10 greenhouse on Amazon for $500, husband built over 5 days in November 2022 and shelves are from the hardware store. I have battery operated fans that I seem to only use in the summer. Oh and the floor - heavy duty weed fabric covered in pea gravel. 😊

Nice greenhouse tips add my tomato plants are doing very well so is my cucumbers peas plant is doing very well to very tall

This one’s for me!!👍❤️🥂

I’d have loved a Rhino greenhouse but couldn’t afford it and was desperate to get started last year. I bought a Halls and I’m happy with it apart from losing 9 panes of glass earlier this year due to one of our many storms. Maybe I’ll upgrade in a few years.

I bought a greenhouse years ago and then when I finally put it together after my divorce was over, and I was back home in my garden, it was ripped to shreds. Fortunately the company Eagle Peak sent me a brand new one after I put it on social media. Put the frame up and hung lights on it but I've been really apprehensive to cover it again with the greenhouse plastic sheath. I'm afraid that the whip of the wind is just going to take it out!! When I noticed the old one trying to rip I tried using boards to way down the sides. I folded up the corners and staple them onto the boards. I used canvas straps and weight bags. But the wind took it out. The only thing we reinforcing it did was leave some things left in place but still ripped. I've been enjoying it as a type of sitting area and I could possibly grow some lightweight things up the side like a vine... But I'm afraid to take the brand new cover out of the box. I sent them all kinds of modification suggestions for the design that they had. I hope they improve it, since I feel it was a complete waste of $300. One day I'm going to have a high tunnel. The sad thing is, I had collected all the supplies to go ahead and build my own cattle panel greenhouse. But then I just switched gears and thought I wanted something more movable since I'm about to move. I know I keep saying that I'm about to move, so that's why I didn't start some of the perennials here that I wanted to... I should have taken my advice years ago and act as if I was going to be here forever, and that would make it to where I'm stewarding the land even better and learning even more! Maybe I'll go ahead and build that one, and leave it here!! *along with all the other things the next owner will have to rip out if they hate it😂

Great information. Thanks.

So many helpful information. This is the greenhouse model to follow. Great video!

Great video!!

Eli an well thought out and presented informative video, thank you.

Hi Eli & Kate, what a great video about a greenhouse, benefits tips & advice too. Thanks for sharing and take care 😊for

Sure would be nice to have mild weather like you have. Heating is top on my list when we rebuild the GH this year. I need a couple more feet as right now I’m looking to the rafters for available space 😂. It’s not just how many flats can you fit in a GH, but the canopy of plants and available light. I’m using poly carb panels here to help insulate and they do block a little light to prevent scorching. We are like a desert. I started hot peppers early, but as I said before the Megatron Jalapeños are Fast growers and I just pinched flowers-Ugh! Not sure how this will go this year as I want to try a low tunnel to get extra weeks on all peppers as it seems I just start harvesting when they are doing great and the frost hits 😏. So my main points to jot down in journal is growth rates of everything so I know next year. I have started many more perennials than normal and added annuals to that list as I would like to see flowers earlier also. The new to me flowers I have to watch maturation dates as some just wouldn’t have enough time here like the Tithonia that popped two flowers and the frost hit. Lol, I thought it was a field weed and wasn’t sure so I let it go-😂now I know where the Tithonia went. E-Gads, some of these packets have super germination and still others grow so fast it’s difficult to gauge how much room they will need. On that note we started heating the GH yesterday and by 1am I checked the temp was down to 38*F-3.33C!😮😮. Freak out Time! All hands on Deck! Sound the Alarms! The heater had a malfunction. All is fine so we can all calm down now. Phew! I love the potting tray you have and was able to find it here in the US. It has helped contain the mess inside. And I found the right size cell packs from Bootstrap Farmer. They will be perfect for tomatoes as they are taller. Looking over seeds that still need started and trying to plan my strategy as I haven’t started tomatoes yet and I want them to go right from starter cell to ground. I’m going by in ground timing because 5/12 is our last frost, but we can’t safely plant until 6/1 unless I’m willing to be ready with an army to cover everything. Last 5/25 we had a bad freeze that did severe damage-it was dreadful and we had no warning. Hopefully this will be the year I get everything we like to grow fine tuned in the timing and quantity department. I admire those with such restraint to plant only a certain amount of seeds as they nicely fold up the remaining seeds in the packets for storage😂😂. Don’t know how to fix that issue.😅 You have a very nicely organized GH. I see an upgrade in square footage in your future 🔮🧙‍♀️🪄😉

Your greenhouse is rammed with lush plants! 😊

Ordered my staging !

Hello both, i am a new subscriber & i am finding your vlogs very interesting & useful. I have only a small garden but have ordered a Rhino Greenhouse, which should arrive next month. I am having someone install it for me. The greenhouse will be a 6'x4' premium Rhino with staging & shelves. I know this will be a lot smaller than yours, but it's certainly better than not having one at all. I am so excited & cannot wait to get started & sowing. Thank you for your advice, hints & tips ❤ Sharon from Leicester (midlands) xx

I finally know what greenhouse I need to save up for! I ordered a Halls greenhouse last year, and was surprised that it was quite short. Thankfully I'm also short, so not a big issue. I don't see this current house being my forever home, so if I ever do move to somewhere with a bigger garden, that I plan on staying in for the good chunk of my life, yours is the greenhouse I will be saving for! Also, thanks for sharing where your bins are from! Luckily there's an IKEA not too far from me :-D

Love your channel! I'm watching, growing, and learning from Alaska!

Hi there, just found your channel, love it 😊

Plants and seedlings looking amazing in your greenhouse. My greenhouse is 6x3. Cute and efficient. Lol If I ever get a bigger garden I'll definitely get a bigger greenhouse 🙂

Came in from planting potatoes and saw you had put out a video so watching a little later.

Great video ....your Greenhouse is looking fabulous ....so good to learn the basics & thank you for your sound advice 😊

Id be interested in seeing how your benches work and fold eli, and are they strong

I absolutely loved this!! I’m always asking for a nose in your greenhouse 😊

Another Rhino fan here. 8 x 8 in Antique Ivory 😅 The extra width means double doors - room for a wheel barrow. 😊

I think our recent drop in temperatures has meant I can start growing seedlings again. I think during Summer and even the start of Autumn it was just too hot in there... but I didn't consider it and likely didn't keep on top of the watering... but in the last week or so I've managed to get some little kiwi fruit seeds sprouting and even starting to develop their true leaves :D

rhino greenhouse are the best greenhouses i have ever used. had my 2 for 4 years now top brand

Some great points Eli to think about when getting a greenhouse. 2000.00 though. Wow. Worth the money though

Thanks for the info as currently im greenhouse is full of chard. God knows i don't how as i had 🍅 then i put some cabbages in. But my allotment is full of chard, due letting it go to seed the first year of getting the allotment 😂.

i spray my peppers with fairy liquid and water in a small spray bottle on a night time when i spot signes of aphids. by morning they are usually all gone

Wish I'd seen this video last year mine looks like yours but isn't at all, we to have dreadful wind these last few years though we're in the south east, its blown panels out already plus we've lost a polytunnel so wish I looked into things, brilliant video ❤

Yea i leave it til 9-10pm in the summer when the sun is well down just 1 spray per plant. Its risky but it works. Wish i had those windows you have they are mint!

Great video….they’ve got those stacking bins in Dunelm, I’m considering getting a couple for my perlite & compost. My next investment though is some module trays most likely from containerwise, just need to decide which ones and how many 🎉

I love your benches. I could not find anything like them here in the US. I love the propagator too. Was that made for a greenhouse or did you build it?

Hi again do you put all of your kitchen scraps and your plant scraps in your compost bin in the greenhouse?😊 I'm new at gardening so this is why I asked stupid questions. I'm trying to learn. I truly love your videos you are a really good teacher ❤️😍❤️

My base should be finnished tomorrow. I can then arrange a date for delivery of my Rhino premium 8x10.😁😁😁😁

Eli, your photo case you featured a while ago where you store your seeds. I purchased a clear one for.my veg seeds and file them in alpha order for ones i grow. Beans, cabbage etc. Ive just got another one for flower seeds. Just wondered if i should file them in alpha order or month order? Used to store flower seeds in alpha order in two wash pods plastic containers. Advice gratefully received.

I bought a house with a very old scruffy looking window-style green house and I will definitely build shelves like yours! Question: what about water? I could get an old sink and hook it up, but is it worth it and should it be outdoors?

Hi Eli. Thanks for another great video. Could I ask what you recommend as a support to tomato plants in the greenhouse? Thanks so much.

This was a wonderful vlog but, it was missing one thing. Kate working away in the background. 😉😂❤️🥂

Love my rhino ❤ Got it a couple of years ago having watched one of your videos, so a big thank you!! How have you run power into it? Did you run cables underneath the frame and up into it? Thanks again

FYI again! P.S. I followed the link from this video to your shop that has the RU-vid symbol next to it and it takes you nowhere. Maybe it's me - user error, it's Monday!

I was sharing your Channel with a friend in the UK and I was testing out the link I was giving her. It took me to your website but when I tried to go to the link for the United States shopping it said that that was not open anymore. FYI

Hi Eli, Not a greenhouse question but my Greenstalk is arriving Thursday. Can you please do an update

I think i a little bit overboard with starting seeds my tomato plants my cucumber plants were growing out of the little paper cups The Roots were coming out of the bottom of the cup

Hello can you tell me what sIze your IKEA bins are?

Hey there, just wondering what the green shelf is to the right top side of your greenhouse? We also have a Rhino and see they do their own shelving, but bot sure if there is another shelving system you use? Also the very tall shelf to the back of your greenhouse, is this a Rhino shelving system? Looking to order some as our greenhouse is bursting with seedlings now 😊 Thanks in advance. It is our first full season with our Rhino and we are excited to grow Mediterranean veg and herbs in it this summer ❤ thanks in advance, Sarah and Sue

I need help trying to layout my high tunnel. I got a 20'x40' high tunnel and I have no idea how to lay it out. I want to grow food year round so I got a heater installed. I really need someone to hold my hand and guide me. I live in Kentucky. Have clay soil and we've just been upgraded from zone 6b to zone 7a.

Which size are your IKEA tubs Eli? 😊😊

Is there a hole to allow a cable to enter? If not how did you do it?

Folding bench? Link please. I need them for the quadgrows you made me buy.😂😂😂😂

Do you have problems with mice getting into your greenhouse?

Difference between fan club and legacy?

can this greenhouse manage 125mph gusts up here in scottish isles open land?

Eli, are you smaller than 5ft 4”? Asking for a ‘friend’. 😉😂

Apparently Rhino only have one builder, and he is busy, so I have no idea when or if he can build mine. I probably will have to cancel it. 😢😢😢😢

Thumbs down no chair or hammock 😂
