I think there were mass casualties in the greenhouse. My sickness caused poor planning and well the cold weather will do cold things. Loss count tbd.
I now have a backup propane heater in place to try and salvage as many plants as possible.

Oh no! I can sadly relate to this 🫂
Hoping it was just the seedling. It’s just a reminder that we can’t control everything but damnit, we sure will try.
I found that adding a lot of thermal mass to a greenhouse can help buffer out some of my human foibles and inattentiveness
I have 2 40gallon trash cans of water in there as thermal mass. Just not enough when it’s 2°F outside
Those are rookie numbers 😉😂

Ah interesting. It’s only a 6ftx8ft space. There’s not much more room for another barrel.
