If you could build a greenhouse this year what would it look like?

I want to hear from YOU! I am in the process of planning another DIY greenhouse project and I want your intel. Tell me what your perfect greenhouse looks like. How big is it, what size? Is it a true 4 season greenhouse that you plan to grow in and heat or more of a potting shed to just extend your growing season? Have inspo photos saved? Share them here.

Full disclosure, I am leaning towards a passive solar greenhouse design. I am stuck between 10x12 or 8x16 as far as size goes. Both sizes would cost close to the same to build. They are coming in at approximately $5,500 CAD.

Is this something you'd want in your backyard? Would you invest $5,500 CAD ($4,000 USD) into a greenhouse if it meant you could grow in it year round?

I attached photos of a mockup of a 10x12 passive solar greenhouse design I’ve been working on.

I'd love to hear from you and get your input!
