I wouldn't worry about temperature swings that you mentioned too much. I have stuff in the greenhouse & there was a solid layer on the inside wall of ice. We have a terrible forecast for Sunday thru Tuesday with -30ºC/ -22ºF. I started to put bubble wrap up for extra insulation. last night the outdoor temp was -20ºC/-4ºF & the ice had formed. I put some comforters & a sleeping bag on the roof, so that probably helped. The lowest inside temp at the farthest end from the heater was 7ºC/45ºF. A gazania germinated over night & the impatiens & coleus were fine. pic of bubble wrap install
