CC's Fruits, Veggies & Food 2023

I have read about using milk (distilled water) jugs to gather winter heat in a greenhouse, passive heat.
I have a 4'x4'x6' small greenhouse kit. Aluminum. Without any in ground support it will blow away in a stiff wind, hence the four wooden supports.
MY plan is to bury the six foot 4"x4"'s supports 2'3" deep, and to bury the two 8 ft landscape timers also 2'3" deep.
The 3 inches should prevent sticking in the corners. Unlike my horse fencing, which is supporting metal pole fence panels, I don't think I should bury 3 ft deep.
I plan to secure the walls to the wooden supports with self countersinking screws. Since aluminum is soft, there shouldn't be a problem.
I hope to put this greenhouse together this next Spring.
I will also in the Fall, pound in four 8 ft long fenceposts to secure a 4'x8' piece of plywood on the west side of the greenhouse to break the winter wind.
I am NOT the builder that This guy is, But, when I floored the cubbyhole attic off of a 2nd floor bedroom, where there was a door, but no floor, about 10'x 20something ft (never measured it, sloping house roof and to the NE corner of the house roof. ) I made Sure to put one 18"x4' panel with a handle where the new electric wire was installed, in case I need to access it. It has a toybox on top of it, still accessible.
This Wallpini is lovely but a BIG BIG investment!
Obviously this guy doesn't garden outside of his Wallpini!

Actually he does garden outside of the Wallpini. There's a place in the video where he has seed trays in the rafters for starts to plant in the garden. I watched the entire video every nook and cranny is being used for one thing or another. Very well thought out and planned for his first wallpini build. He even mentioned about adding sawdust under the removable floor sections to grow mushrooms.

I watched the whole video, so, yes, I heard about the mushroom growing.
Just that, this is a BIG investment for that sized greenhouse.
I might find out that My greenhouse isn't big enough, but I'm not sure I have the energy to use a big greenhouse. I small one, used as an intermediary from inside starts to "wait for the frosts to be over" should be enough.
Small footprint, not obtrusive.
If I built a Wallpini I think I would have a business where I was selling produce.

All true and I truth.

He has a saw mill to saw out lumber needed to build it. I also have a saw mill, so I could shave a lot of the cost off up front.

There's still a lot of $$$$ in other materials and to rent a trachoe. He said if he would do it again he would pour the south facing wall. What he meant was a cement wall instead of a earthen wall, even more $$$

If one had the time and $$$$ it would be a good option in the long run though. Probably would save $$$ over the seasons and eventually pay for itself. But I think it would take many seasons to realize ROI (Return On Investment)
