I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Orchid Board

I drove my parents over the edge and they agreed to let me buy a greenhouse!

It is 6'x8' and has an aluminum frame. Because my mother "never wants to see a non blooming orchid in her house ever again" I got 6mm twin polycarbonate panels and a heater to hopefully protect my orchids from the cold. The kit was expensive ($749

)but it was the biggest I could find for that price and included all the excessories (Base, vents,) But my main concern is whether it is insulated enought to run year round. Also if anyone knows of a better deal and thinks I made a huge mistake, speak up and I'll cancel the order real quick! Thanks as always.

So, where did you find your greenhouse so cheaply? I might have to push some buttons to get one!!

Congratulations!!!!!

That's super News! I'm like Joann.... Hubby won't let me.. but he has a point we move regions every 2/3 years so it would be highly impractical.

Looking forward to seeing pics of how you set it up!

I found my greenhouse on amazon but bought it off the retailers website (can't remeber what it's called, Earth something )The greeenhouse is called Grow N Up 6' x 8' Greenhouse Kit. I'd look it up on amazon first because they didn't have a lot of options, so it'll be easier to find.
