Cold Frames Made Of Re-Purposed Habitation Windows

When nosotros had to bring our house's windows replaced amongst novel ones terminal year, I asked that all the erstwhile windows endure left amongst us too thence they could endure re-purposed into mini mutual coldness frames.

We pose them upwards the twenty-four hours earlier these 20-degree temperatures arrived too I wanted to hand them a few days/nights lawsuit piece of occupation to run across how good they did. Success!

Jon drilled footling holes inward the frames too ran wire through the holes to brand a secure necktie that fifty-fifty these recent, awful winds bring non messed with.

The footling windows at the ends blew downwardly ane black but the plants didn't endure whatsoever damage.

We've watered ane time simply past times slipping the hose inward amongst a H2O menses diffuser/bubbler attached too thence it would menses downwardly into the soil.

The other greens inward the garden? Mixed results. The Kale has freezer burn, the Mache too Arugula are doing fine.

Dinosour kale without protection 

Arugula - unfazed past times freezing temperatures too blooming!

Mache - unprotected too undisturbed past times the freeze
