Well it will be indoors once I get a green house up. Right now it's not set up yet. Still gathering equipment to start one.

I kind of figured doing a solar heat for the day and then a tank heater at night. Where I have my plants growing as of now is in my patio. They are doing good. Patio don't get below 45. Where I'm putting my greenhouse will be in the same area so it should stay roughly the same.

Ive seen some pics here of guys that wrap roof insulation round tanks then build wood around that to hide it all. The end results look amazing sometimes.
