Yes, but it went up to 50 degrees today. That hasn't happened here in weeks and it was welcome. Here's the greenhouse. We used 100-lb tanks of propane & use a ventless propane gas heater to heat the greenhouse. We keep it at around 55 degrees in winter. It costs us $ 62.00 per bottle of propane and that lasts 2 weeks, so it is costing $ 124.00/month in winter to heat it. Of course, if we have sunny days, we don't have to use so much propane.
