12×16 Wood Greenhouse – DIY Project
I built the 12X16 greenhouse from the plans I found on this website. I’ve had to work on it after work and during the busy weekends so I don’t have a great time estimate, in addition, I had to move a lot of my yard and build a retaining wall to have the necessary “flat” location here in north Georgia.
My greenhouse is built from treated 2X4’s that I stained white. I covered the frame with twin wall poly carbonate panels that I ordered on line. I anchored using post holes and 2X4’s tied into the footer. I also upgraded the 4X4 footer as suggested to a 4X6 which I felt would lay better and have better stability. Additional bracing was added as seen in the pictures; otherwise I’ve stayed pretty true to the plans.
