Speak about the portable greenhouse. Purchased or homebuilt? I'm seriously thinking about building something this year for next fall/winter.

The greenhouse was homebuilt. It’s very small—70X70, just big enough to slip over the square-foot garden and for my wife to move around inside. We just framed PVC pipe together, covered it in plastic sheeting, and slipped it over some rebar at each corner of the garden. The roof is securely fastened with PVC snaps, but the side panels are fastened with velcro for easy removal. We can easily slip it on and off, and adapt it as a shade when the summer months come.
