Daniel, are you going to use any extra heat to keep your citrus above zero by celsius?

Yes serj, well first of all , there is going to be an extra layer over the greenhouse so it will be like this:

1 pvc pipes/1 plastic 15mil uv res/1 plastic with air bubbles/1 layer of plastic 10 mil uv res.

In this way the air trapped inside those bubbles of air will insulate even better.

Then I can use some sort of electrical heater , but also I'm thinking of using solar power Rolling Eyes

Daniel, what did you mean in "plastic 10 mil uv res"? Is this a policarbonate shield? I'm going to use the SCHS - solar heating and cooling system. It is looks like some burried pipes in the soil. The blower blows air through the pipes and heat will be stored in the soil in day and will be extracted at night.
