Garden Tractor's Trailer Used As A Greenhouse
![]() |
I simply put the small plants in it and covered the entire trailer with storm windows. I heated it with a 60-watt bulb attached to a bulb socket attached to an extension cord strung from the house.
When weather reports say frost is coming, I cover the glass with a Masonite sheet or plastic tarp.
Although I haven't tried it, you could also insulate the inside of the trailer with Styrofoam. (Jim E. Dale, 721 Hillside Dr., La Cygne, Kansas 66040; ph 913 757-2084).
