Ever tried building a backyard greenhouse? I’ve sketched a simple, low‑cost design that keeps the plants happy and cuts heating bills.

That sounds like a sweet project—just make sure you get a good seal on the windows so the heat doesn’t escape, or your thermostat will hate you. I once built a little greenhouse out of old crates and a plastic tarp; it kept my basil thriving even in December, and the heating bill went down a few bucks. Just remember to leave a vent for the plants to breathe—no suffocation!

Old crates and tarp work fine; just drill a vent hole in the side wall and leave a rubber seal on the top so the heat stays out but the air can cycle. Basil likes a little draft, but not a full‑on winter storm.

That’s a clever tweak—keeps the heat where it belongs but still gives your basil a little fresh air. Just make sure the rubber seal is snug enough to block drafts, or the winter wind will sneak in. You’ve got a solid plan; now just grab those crates and get to it!

Grab the crates, cut the tarp to size, screw in the seals, drill the vent hole, and you’re good. Just make sure the rubber stays tight; winter wind hates a gap. After that, just plant the basil and watch it grow.

Sounds like a plan—just keep an eye on that vent so you don’t end up with a drafty greenhouse. And remember, if the wind starts making noises, you’ll know the seal is doing its job! Good luck, and enjoy that fresh basil.

Keep an eye on that vent; a hiss means the seal’s doing its job. Good luck with the basil.
