For my big birthday last Sept. my husband said he would like to build me a
greenhouse instead of making me a party - which was FINE with me! I did some research, but haven't found one yet because I have a problem with the location we have to put it in. The only place to connect one to the house for winter gardening is by the sliding doors that lead out of our basement. The problem I have with that, is that the only other outdoor exit from that room is the garage door, and I'm not too happy about people having to got through the
greenhouse to get out to the backyard. Plus, I like to put my wood drying racks of laundry out there to dry in the sun, and it would be a nuisance to have to drag them through the
greenhouse.
That said, I really would like access to the
greenhouse during the freezing winter months without having to bare the elements - what I was thinking was putting a free standing one next to the sliders and my husband could build a removable vestibule from the sliders to the
greenhouse. The only problem here is that I can't seem to find one that has the door on the side instead of the end. I found one, but it was EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE.
I always seem to come up with these problems with no easy solution... and as a result don't get to have what I would like.
Any suggestions?
Am I really going to have to lose the use of that door to gain what I've been wanting for years?
Help???
