What is needed to grow vegetables in my new 6’x8’ greenhouse from Harbor Freight this winter in zone 8b? I have a 15amp electrical outlet in close proximity and can run water to it via a drip system.

    Insulate the walls to help keep some heat in. If you’re growing warm-weather crops you may need to do the roof as well.

    Get some fans for interior circulation, and/or an exhaust fan.

    Get a thermostatic controller to automatically control the heat. Can use it to kick on the exhaust fan if it’s a warm sunny day as well.

    Ambient Weather WS3000 to monitor greenhouse vs outdoor temp and humidity patterns.

    I have all of these things in my exact greenhouse and it’s been amazing.
