Green House Phase II



Phase II was begun today after Dad & I went to Home Depot and bought more lumber & insulation.

I got a lot more done today than I thought I would.




Now that February is half over, The sun is higher in the afternoon sky and is at its peak around 2 PM. The photo above of the indoor/outdoor thermometer photo will attest to that.
By 4:30 PM the sun no longer shines on the greenhouse, so the temp plummets from thereon..





I added a 2nd sub floor layer and actually had to take my jacket off while installing it because it was so warm!




The green exterior carpet is a nice touch and should help warm the place. I only tacked it down on 3 sides because I want it to heat and cool for a week to work out any potential bumps before I do the final cut to fit.


Next weekend, I will put up the R 13 insulation in the ceiling & walls and then begin the final phase III of creating the interior shelves along the windows (3 levels).
