Growing In The Winter (GREENHOUSE)

Hey there fellow winter grower. Im building a 20 x 40 atrium on the side of the house now. I plan on running a Wiseway stove. 16mm triple wall poly carbonate 6 x 24 ft panels for the roof. Bails of straw line the floor with an r value of 25 with process on top to store thermal heat. Im in Maine so we have about the same weather. Plexiglass may be better for a roof and allow more light in. I would double it up with an air gap though it may be much more expensive. Thermal glass is heavy. My side walls are some what glass. The 4 x 7 ft panels or a bit smaller are 160 pounds. The key is you need strains that do well in low light. I have a thread in the outdoor labelled 4 season green house with a list of strains. Master Kush and Kaya Gold are two popular low light strains as is Bangi Haze. NL is supposed to do well and is a great flavor and popular. Best of luck

And Boys, what's up with the avatar? Looks like paint shop to me. Somebody get another one, let it reflect something with current relevancy. Mine will change in 78 more days, and hopefully to a picture of ME and a great bodacious BUD.
I am in Northern CA. 30 miles South of the Oregon border. It's been 16 degrees the last few nights sso I harvested my gals (see pic) 3 days ago. See the snow outside my window? They were sprouted DEC. 7th last year and have been outdoors, as yours, the entire time (with lights for warmth). I am pleased though I would have liked to go another week. Trichomes were mostly cloudy; hardly any amber.
