Shed/ greenhouse

With the temps here in the low teens and planting time quickly upon us here we decided to make the shed into a make shift greenhouse. With little time to spare we cleaned it out and are in the process of putting up more shelves. We also was gifted a little Coleman heater that runs for 20 hours on one fill up of Coleman fuel. Surprisingly its perfect for the little shed to stay warm and toasty. And that's even on low. I started the heater on a below zero night and within 1 hour the 9x9 shed was above freezing and around 45 degrees. Should be perfect for the little plants not to freeze on cold nights. Also the lights give off heat so its worth a shot.

Storage

What do you prefer to store your bulk flour in? I prefer glass but what if I told you that I can get 5 gallon buckets for next to nothing. Yup that's right, while talking to a friend on Freedom Gardens, she mentioned I might beable to locate a bakery that will sell the empty icing buckets to me. So I did and much to my delight found on close to home. They are very low in price so I am putting my flour and sugar into these because the glass jars are so high with me just wanting to store 50 pounds of flour. This will do for now.

This is also a very great way to recycle the buckets.
