Thank you for this video. My life took a radical change a few years back when I developed a rare disease, Myasthenia Gravis. I can no longer do many things I used to do and am now pretty much bound to my home but I have found gardening to be something that not only I can enjoy but something I love doing at least when the weather is not overly hot out. Anyway, I love DYI projects and this looks like one I can pull off and one that will help me a lot with getting my garden going in the spring here in Nebraska. Of course, I'll have to spike it in the ground and put latches on the lid or it'll end up in Kansas but that's a simple fix. And I believe this has given me the perfect Idea for how to use up a place that is beside my house that has been an eye soar but gets the perfect light for a seed box. Thank you! Can't wait for that promised video on how to use the seed box.
Years ago, my dad made a cold frame very similar to this. He made the top out of old windows. We lived in Ohio, where we got TONS of snow, and that cold frame really lasted a long time. I think using an old sliding glass door or an old storm door would work well, too, but you'd have to adjust the size of your cold frame accordingly.
Perfect for someone who doesn't have a huge garden. Simple enough to put together. Since you reused the lumber from the old deck roof and created it on the fly, all I could hear in my head was my dad saying, 'Gale, that's very Cape Coddish!' LOL He meant it in a charming way, but I got a good belly laugh watching you build it and hearing him in in my head.
I googled, "diy quick and easy cold frame", and this one of yours is by far the coolest and lest dependent on carpentry skills. I like. Simple, elegant and easy to assemble. I think you (meaning me) can scrounge most of the material if you try. Kinda like cooking from your pantry. Use what you have on hand and maybe improvise a little if you have to.
A quick heads up. Next time you do a project like this put that grey tape on plastic and slice inside of tape area to help prevent possible tearing of plastic. Since you did not do that you can still prevent tearing by going back out and edging cut areas with grey tape. The opening and closing and wind movement can easily tear plastic. By edging it. You will save all your hard work and not need to replace torn plastic. I learned that trick last year. Trust me. A few seconds and couple inches of tape versus redoing all plastic and extra cost and time.
Such a great project and an amazing way to harden off new plants before they hit the big bad world. I built a rack of them in the new well-being garden but it's not finished yet I have a bit more work to do. That's the great thing about this time of year. It allows you to get on with those projects you need to finish.
Great idea!! And, if you have access to a carpenter who replaces house windows, sometimes you can find a discarded window and build a cold frame around its dimensions.
Nice cold frame and video. Inspired me to build one. I've had trouble with zip ties decaying in sunlight- even exterior ones. I will just use bale twine. If I could find a marketable use for bale twine I'd be a millionaire.
2 years late to the party... But a quick tip: White zip ties may look neater with the white pipe and clear plastic... But they aren't nearly as UV resistant as the black ones. The white ones will get brittle and disintegrate faster. The black ones last a lot longer. It isn't a major chore to replace them. But it's a task that takes time from something else you could be doing... And as we all know, there never seems to be enough time when you're gardening.
Great video and idea 🖒. I fortunately have a window replacement company about a mile from me, it's a great source of free windows to make cold frames from
Just now seeing patio cover. Awesome. Rock on. Need to do an outdoor grow box and saw this post. Haven't finished watching yet just had to give a high five and great job on patio.
Helpful tip (for greater longevity), I'd add some "L" brackets to the outside of the two front corners. Over time, I've seen warpage on my construction projects (but I'm a crappy construction-person!).
Thank you for that tutorial, I may actually be able to build my own cold frame for next season. My veggie pod does well but the plants spend so much energy going down to the water they dont concentrate in growing the food. My fault for not hooking up the overhead sprayer as I should have last season. We left ve and learn. Again thank you for this information.
Hi Brian! Love your Channels. I always learn a lot. I can’t wait to see what you plant in the Mediterranean Garden when it’s ready. It’s going to be exciting!
This is brilliant! I plan to build one the size of an old large window, using it as the cover. My main issue is when we get hail, so I have to put it under an area with mesh overhead to prevent breakage. I also have thick bubble wrap I plan to use over it to help insulate and protect the glass, too. Lots of light still gets through.
Nice job. Handy to have in a colder climate. Unfortunately I need shade more than warmth in my middle Florida location. The Sun is already beating the ground on my south facing back patio.
Great little build. I didn't see a link for the high tech hole punch. Is that a Dixon or Ticonderoga? I assume a #2, right? I could probably use some salvaged HT pallets to build one.
Off subject. I moved to central valley, zone 9. I have my tomatoes, peppers, and squash ready for living outside. Thank you for teaching me. Problem, I don't get this California weather. I was use to planting once snow melted on local mountain. We, Merced, are getting night temps of 30s to low 40s, day like you have most likely. Note, thanks to you I have beautiful plants.
Im in Sacramento proper. I just put my black krims in their pots outside yesterday. There’s one day that it’ll dip to 40 in the next couple of days but for the most part we are at least 45 overnight here in Sac, and since I’m a container gardener my soil is certainly warm enough for tomatoes. Your weather still shows a low of 35 next Wed so I’d hold off until after next week, and then you should be golden. Don’t tell Brian but my tomatoes were outside in 37F and they did just fine, but I’m a gardening rebel. 😉
@@melissasullivan1658 I love that you're a gardening rebel! I live in inland So Cal, and I grow tomatoes through the winter because it's actually too hot for them here in the summer. We regularly have nights in the low to mid-30s in the winter and I don't bother to cover my tomatoes. The leaves do get damaged and look pretty rough by this time of year, but I always have tons of gorgeous fruit. I do grow more "cold tolerant" varieties, but even those varieties aren't supposed to tolerate nights in the 30s...and yet they do!
Oh Brian, I had to laugh cuz you’re like my oldest adult son.. ADHD also.. who plans & builds in his head 😃. I’ve learned to wait & see cuz I can’t follow his creations which turn out amazing🤩 . Great job👍. 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Old windows frames are usually $0.00 if you ask and look around. Use untreated pallet wood for the wood and you have yourself a free cold frame! Look easy wood hinges for the hinge.
Have you thought of doing a 8 foot high 12 foot by 12 foot greenhouse with a fence 1 foot away from the walls inside. Ok resone you can have chickens and vegetables Vining in the fence thoughts.
pack rat me will be using some old windows i salvaged for the lids... i wonder if i should "frost" them to diffuse the light? also - i assume the slanted top is to eliminate standing water after a rain? (or else why, when straight sides would be way easier to build?). as always, thanks for the show - great stuff!
Windows would be great. Clear is fine. This is just the only plastic I found. Slanted for rain and also because it allows more sun in. Especially in winter when the sun is lower on the horizon
That looks more stable than the sh*t I bought in a store. And probably was cheaper too. I wish I've seen your video earlier 😂 But now I know what to do next time. Do you have a video on how to make a green house or tunnel?
Speaking of your creativity... would you consider some videos showing techniques on how to paint plastic pots or urns to look like aged concrete? I can't afford real concrete pots. Thanks.
Seems like this project is best suited for those who have a miter saw and know how to use it. Some explanation of how you measured and decided to cut the angles would have been nice for those of us who don't have one.
Yeah… I would definitely say, this is not for the cheap Starters like myself… I don’t even have a way to cut that wood, other than a hand saw.. which I have been industrious enough to use for some larger cutting but… definitely… I’m obviously living with a different lifestyle within a very different budget! I will continue to improvise with my meager means
@@FatimaMariam1 I've just been using clotures or plastic (humidity)domes over plants I wanted to grow outdoors in my raised beds during the winter in zone 8A. It seems to be working so far.... I even started a few perennials from seed in late November under the domes and even through the coldest weather we've had, they have turned into seedlings. Salad greens do really well. The clotures really help maintain the moisture level too reducing the need for watering.
I used 6 mill plastic on a greenhouse two years ago after 8 months it began to crack and I held it together with wide transparent tape. In two months the areas not taped cracked and the wind created tares. At 11 months I decided to remove the plastic. When pieces fell to the ground I would try to pick them up but these small pieces fractured into ever smaller pieces. The plastic will continue to fracture until it gets so small it will get into your soil. When it rains it will wash into streams and continue to fragment until it becomes small particles in our water supply. The plastic on the soil can be taken up by plants. The plastic can also be blown by wind into the atmosphere and may be in the snow and rain. I became so alarmed by this that I took the time tell people.
This is a great idea! I really wish I had not used the little tiny seed starter trays. Maybe it’s me, or central CA where the heat today will get up to 80 today, drop to the 40s tonight. But my seedlings are slow to germinate if at all or baked in the sun when I forget to move them to shade, or just generally struggling. And when they are big enough, how do I move them out of those silly tiny potting spaces?
@@NextLevelGardening they are the tray kits with 70 cells, just over an inch wide, 2 1/2 inches deep. They were gifted to me. How quickly can I get my tomato babies out of them?
Hi Brian Great video, awesome how you showed exactly how to build the cold frame. Would you put seed trays under there? Or would you put soil in there and grow directly? If the latter do you plan to add a liner to prevent anything leaching from the wood? (I think you had some liners in your raised beds at your last house) Thanks again for all your videos.
