Rupe, your my hero!! Really looks nice.

Concerning the concrete floor in the greenhouse. Can you tell if the additional "thermal mass" helps maintain warmer temperatures after sunset, compared to dirt or gravel flooring?
Or maybe I should ask your opinion of a concrete floor compared to other types.
Thanks,
jd

Maybe safe to assume Rupe has noticed no difference in concrete versus earth, rock floor in GH?

Jd, haven't had time to make any comparisons based on data...

The location of this site is some distance from the Holmes-A-Court system, and has significantly different temperatures, especially at night...

It's also about twice the size...

I would expect the concrete floor would act as a greater thermal mass and release heat during the night...

A little aside note, not meant to hijack thread. When pouring the concrete slab, I very much wanted to install coils for hydronic (I think thats the word) heating and cooling. The contractor talked me out of it. I would love to know if someone has ever tried that and with what results. It may add significant expense up front but pay dividends in long term low cost climate control. Some times I have trouble staying in "the box." :think:
