We bubble wrapped our greenhouse as part of our end of season prep 

Condensation is one of the things I am watching for as normally I do see a lot of condensation first thing in the morning. I'm keeping an eye on temperature differentials and humidity, will update you guys in due course.

we’re sitting with mugs of beetroot soup (form the garden) Can’t wait till we get you growing veggies and things :)

@@eliandkate looking forward to it guys!

I don't heat it in winter no. It would just be far too expensive but I use the heater in spring, just overnight when the nights are still cold. I talked a bit about it and my heater in the video I did ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rVkv-WMdZFc.html

Hey Chris, afraid I dont have data from that far back but from the last couple of months I can see that the bubblewrap is keeping the greenhouse a degree or two warmer than outdoors during the night. The big test for me is about frost protection. Last year even with fleeces, my plants were still frost damaged when they were in the greenhouse. Fingers crossed.

Ha ha ha. It didn’t last long... the horticultural bubble wrap is super strong so it takes the fun right out of it.

It really is! Has become my hideyhole :)

:) our secret JB

Keep watching I explain it in the video and there is a link in the video description to the things I’ve bought

Oh that didn't last lol

@@eliandkate 🤣

Sorry this is quite an old video so I'm not sure what we may have spoken about specific to cleaning that you don't understand. Generally the glass greenhouse is much much easier to clean than our old polycarbonate one.

@@eliandkate Thats it, thanks ( :

Thanks so much! 😊

It was definitely a new experience :) If you are thinking of bubble wrapping, make sure you get the good quality horticultural stuff. It lasts for years, I wouldn't be up for this if it was a one season thing.

You can do it! And we’re all here with you!!!!

Glad you enjoyed my waffling on :) Good luck with the bubble wrap

😀😀😀 the horticultural stuff isnt the same. Not as easy or as much fun to burst

seemed a bit pointless to do the rest and leave the roof - we are completely learning as we go LOL

Good news on the basil. Mine is still ticking away too, although the wi Dow ledge stuff is a bit peely wally

Yeah I saw some of those videos but not sure it would be too good an idea for us, give how wet it is, I imagine thing could get pretty gross ewwwww 🤮

Yeah but your greenhouse is HUGE :)

Hurrah for tidy. Tidy makes me happy

Hope you finished watching the video :)

@@eliandkate Yes I always watch your video's until the end.

Thank you so much

Welcome my friend

yup, details are on the about section

We haven’t got temperatures that low yet but I was asked about the bubble wrap the other week and I took some readings. Not a miracle worker making it suddenly summer in there but we knew that. However, it is noticeably warmer in the greenhouse than outdoors, to give you an idea of the temperatures in my greenhouse (average) Non insulated (so no bubble wrap and no heating) Thur 8th Oct outdoors overnight 4C Greenhouse 4C Frid 9th Oct outdoors overnight 3C Greenhouse 3.5C Sat 10th Oct outdoors overnight 4C Greenhouse 4.5C I then added bubble wrap for insulation but still no heating Sun 11th Oct outdoors overnight 4C Greenhouse 5C Monday 12th Oct outdoors overnight 5C Greenhouse 6.5C Tues 13th Oct outdoors overnight 4C Greenhouse 7C Wed 14th Oct outdoors overnight 9C Greenhouse 11C Thur 15th Oct outdoors overnight 6C Greenhouse 7C

@@eliandkate thank for you the details. These numbers make me feel better about mine. This year I’m just partly insulating it to see how year one goes. Which will teach me lessons for next year. Appreciate all of your data!

I think that is the sensible way to do things (like me you need to do your own research and set up your own data gathering exercise). :)

So how cold do your winters get Baron? Will be interesting to see if it makes a big difference. I think it's time for another of your videos :)

@@eliandkate here in Lexington it can get down to an average of -3 degrees C in January. Typically it is a bit warmer throughout the winter, -3 is average. Record is -31 C. So it can dip down in bad winters! I’ll email you a video this week, I don’t see a way to post one here. Although we seem to be having Scotland type of rainy weather here this week!! On Saturday I pulled out some compost to dry (like your one video showed) but since then it’s been lightly raining. Currently have it covered!! The things we do for compost!!

the things we do for compost indeed :)

@@eliandkate I just emailed you a video update! I am not as polished as you with video tours!

We got it Baron and we watched last night. Your wee tours of your garden are fab, I love them. It was so lovely to see your greenhouse in use now, last time I saw it was still quite empty. Quite exciting to see all the potential little plants :)
