GreenHouse Heater

[Cranford Steve]

Got my self a greenhouse heater at last. Its not a proper one though. Is an old caravan heater. Works on propane/butane. Should keep the frost at bay, if we get anymore.

Lucky you! If it works, it's a proper one.

Don't wish to be a killjoy, but we've argued over this on the plots, gas/paraffin is so expensive now that you might like to work out what your veg value is compared to the fuel you might use, besides all that condensation!
I have a polytunnel and nothing gets planted until March. I have my home made candle heater for late frosts!

with you there mate, the economics of heating a freestanding greenhouse just don't add up, south facing window sills do though if you want to get things away early, our spare bedroom does a lot of that this time of year, don't tell the gov't we are pensioners with a spare bedroom though, never get rid of em, the gov't that is

I'll not say a word about your spare room if you don't mention mine!
I only have an east facing patio, but I've rigged up shelf and propagator in my front room,
I'm on my own now otherwise .....

propegated all my seeds on our lounge/dining room window sill last year and have every intention of doing the same again this year

Here's to a good lot of growing for us all this year

I am only going to use it to keep the frost at bay. I wont use it to heat the greenhouse without frost. It is expensive, but I have acquired 5 bottles full so that should see me alright for a while. Here she is, the first line of defence against frost!
