WOW! I am new to the forum and haven't checked it in a few days. You guys are amazing! Who was it that mentioned information overload? I'm following along but I see I have a lot to work on.

As far as greenhouses in snow. I was under the impression that they still work. Is this incorrect.

The organic plant food was from Walmart. The only organic food they have. The name is slipping my mind. Before I plant this next year, I am going to do all that has been recommended so far. You folks are outstanding.

Thank you! Great information. The kennel does not have a roof but your idea for corrugated plastic is great. Never thought of that. Any place local that it would be good to buy from?

As far as my soil, I purchased compost from the compost yard behind walmart and added organic potting soil and organic plant food to the dirt. I grew most in pots. I did transplant some to the ground and they are doing better.

Where would I get the soil tested?

Perhaps I needed more than just the dirt from the compost yard. Did i need to mix it with something else? Great info!

I have an outdoor dog kennel sized 6'x6'x12' and I believe it would make a great structure for building a greenhouse. Has anyone attempted something like this? Could I simply use plastic and zip tie it to the kennel and use it as a greenhouse over the winter? I'm interested in organic gardening during the winter time. My crops this year didn't materialize. It was disappointing. We've managed to harvest a few summer squash and a couple cherry tomatoes but that is it. The vegetable plants grew to be quite large but never developed the volume of vegetables we would have liked. Thank you for any help. I was excited to find this forum through facebook.
