Hey guys!
Just started working on my first cold frame, anyone got pointers on construction as well as location/depth inside ground. The general consensus in Montreal is this is the best method, other than a heat controlled 5C shed or room.
I’ve gotten R10 polystyrene at 2.13 inches, and some 2x2s for bracing. Sealing seems with gorilla tape.
When it comes to ground level or digging, I’ve heard anywhere from don’t dig, to deepest pot height, all the way to dig a hole deep enough to cover all branches.
Hinged doors/openings? Just a closed box? Ventilation? Or do you monitor and open/close throughout winter?
