However I have added an extra panel so it is 7' X 150" x 6'-1 in the center. I am heating it with a 55 gal blue barrel of water and 2 200W fish tank heaters. I bought a double fan that is able to run the fans in opposite directions. This will circulate the air well and ventilate the space. The fan also has a thermostat so it will automatically turn on and off. This is my first attempt at having a greenhouse, but I expect it to be a good one.

There are some people that made this with a 2' wall under the structure. That gave them a 8' hoop. Just an idea. We have had no snow, but we had some good winds, no problems. I was a little worried about it holding up. Aftet I tied the sides in I can put a considerable amoit of pressure on the center with no visible signs of collapse. I have thought about putting a peak board in as a just in case as well as a hanging spot, but I have confidence it will hold up fine
