How warm can a heated greenhouse be when its zero!
I am concerned about a lot of the greenhouses in my area that have all kinds of plants. Will they loose them when the temp goes to -5 here next week with a wind! Two days next week below zero again! My solar greenhouse does not have a chance in this cold weather. last year was no problem! Can you imagine how expensive it is to heat a large 1000 square foot greenhouse and keep the temp above 40 at night!

Greetings, when the temp gets that low everything will go except those that can over winter, even these will die back, if the soil moisture doesn't go completely, they will return with, greenhouse, warm weather and water.
Everything in our greenhouse goes down, if the earth inside dries completely so will most plants.
We plan a greenhouse at the lower ranch for earlier starts.

There are 3 new very large Greenhouses, just built a few miles from us down there. I wonder how they heat them and to what temperatures, would like to walk through and see what they're doing.
