My wife is extremely selfless, I constantly spend money on projects, guns, hunting, tractor parts ect and in the 7 years of our marriage she's been nothing but accepting and giving. Her biggest hobby is growing things she loves orchids and odd stuff like succulents but anyway I digress.
I want to build her a greenhouse in appreciation and I need some advice from the guys at TBN. We don't have tons of spare cash laying around but I'm super handy with tools. My question stems from what material to use on the outer shell of the project, I really would prefer not to use the plastic and I would like whatever I use to be see through and more decorative. Obviously glass would be ideal but I imagine super expensive I'm wondering how the plastic panels would hold up? Lastly do smaller scale greenhouses work properly or is there a minimum size it needs to be to produce the proper greenhouse effect? It will be close enough to the house I can power it for heat and vent fans if that helps.
