Content Summary :
Off-season vegetable production in the hobby solar greenhouse is an enjoyable way for the year-round gardener to extend the harvest season of fresh vegetables. However, without the expense of a greenhouse, gardener can extend the growing season weeks to even months with cold frames and plastic tunnel gardening. For details on frost protect and cold frames, refer the CMG fact sheet #V21, Frost Protect and Extending the Growing Season. Winter vegetable production in a greenhouse is only cost effective with an energy efficient greenhouse structure, a well-designed solar collector, and optimum management. Winter vegetables have a slow growth rate due to low light intensity. Crops should be planted to obtain a near harvestable size by mid-October. The use of artificial light for vegetable production (except for starting transplants) is generally not cost effective.
