I live in N. California. I'm building a greenhouse, thought more for fun, and not as serious as you. I've been reading about ways to heat a greenhouse without power. You can paint things like
milk jugs and laundry detergent containers. Fill them with water. They retain the heat during the day, and help keep it from freezing at night. Also there's a terracotta pot heater that looks interesting. You get a large terracotta saucer in the center you put a large crisco with 3 wicks. Cover with a large terracotta pot, cover that with the next size, and the next. This is supposed to last all night, and give off a decent amount of heat.
I've had a small plastic greenhouse, and the main problem is keeping it from overheating. It gets so hot so fast. I've been looking into
solar fans. They are quite expensive. I've been told
solar fans for
chicken coops are more affordable, though I haven't had time to check it out yet. I also read on a past post someone mentioned getting a fan from a pick and pull or junck
yard and connecting that to a solar panel. I also plan to have a way to have a way to open up windows by the roof to let the heat out. Good luck. I hope you post updates and pictures.
