- This project was a whole lot of fun and a big learning experience for me. I think it came out great, especially for a first construction-based project. The main cost incurred with this project is buying the lear corrugated paneling. A cheaper option would be to build the from the same way, but a clear plastic greenhouse "wrap". It won't last as long but will save you a lot of money.
For the full set of plans, check out my project on RYOBINATION , along with tons of other awesome projects and plans.

Two suggestions...
1. use 4 way deck blocks to make the base more stable.
2. Add a open & closeable vent to be able to control heat and moisture and reduce mold
This is a good book. Does provide a step by step introduction to how to build things th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhgbP-6hUnXu_QRaoHgLztgsI0YF3HqR0 , also does offer some steps. Includes pictures to give you ideas for layouts and such. If you are looking for a guide, this is not exactly what you want. But if you are trying to familiarize yourself with the way that pole barn building and other out buildings, are made, then this will work just as you need it to. A few things in this book are a barn (of course), detached garage, storage building, and coops.
I am pretty handy with power tools and have done a few small projects around the house such as tables, shelves, etc., but I have never attempted to do a project this big. However, after seeing your video, I am sure I can do this. My husband can help me when I need an extra set of hands, but truly, your video shows that this is not a difficult project. Also, the tone of your instructions and the details offer confidence to beginners. Thanks so much.
where can I get the list of supplies, link is broken has error code 404
My husband built this greenhouse for me, using this video tutorial! We added a ventilation system from the front and back. I am uploading a full tour of it on Monday. Thanks for the wonderful design, we absolutely love it and hope to encourage more people to come to this video and use this building plan!!
Love this book! th-cam.com/users/postUgkxpCNxqmAkyjN6NPx1fyB7QiEFWyO5mUWL it is simply one-of-a-kind! I really love it, because karah explained all tools required to have the job done, not mentioning the fabulous diy pallets ideas. I'm pretty sure this will be a fresh start in my new endeavour. Amazon was great, they delivered on time. Thank you!
This will be my wife's Xmas gift. Thanks for the great idea and instructions to boot!!
I'm loving these Ryobi Tools!!!! They sure makes the build easier and more precise. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I would love a green house & this is beautiful i would probably consider installing some cement because of the snow and probably use treated lumber to slow the inevitable rotting at least on the foundation.
Love the direction you are taking the show. I am pregnant RN with my first child & I would really appreciate a build related to babies. Really doesnt matter what I'll leave that up to you. :)
great job mike
4:55 hahaha
At 4:56 Max is taking a dump. Hahaha great job Micheal.
AND THE WINNER IS!!!! I was wondering how long it'd take for someone to notice haha!
That's awesome. I woulda left it in too. Max is famous now!!
Haha! infamous lol
I thought he was a raccoon at first.
I saw that too. Priceless.
Stephanie Mills music in the background - LOVE IT....nice throwback!
It looks good. Nice little greenhouse! I learned some things to help with my greenhouse project, so thanks for sharing.
Add some vents so that you don't have to babysit the greenhouse. You'll need plenty of air circulation. The plants will fry if exposed to high heat for too long. Keeping the door open will help, but that will also invite critters. I also agree with others about the possibility of the greenhouse blowing over. But you could address that in a variety of simple ways. Not criticizing your work, I just know from experience of building commercial greenhouses. Overall, it looks good!
Thanks Scott. Yeah it's one of those things with lack of experience. I assumed just cracking the door would be ok, but if it's still too warm or not enough air circulation, i'll add a vent as it needs it
I'm planning on building my own greenhouse. Do you have a link to a fairly simple (DIY) blueprint? Thanks in advance.
What about adding a window at the other end that lifts up on warmer days. Would that not address the lack of venting?
AWh! same here. Also, as I mentioned on my own reply, more details on the kind of screws, for both the frame and the corrugated cover and siding part. You go to a big box home store and you are faced with a whole aisle and you can ask, but most of the time they don't know anymore then you do, has been my experience.
scott hillegass f
Nice project. I'm inspired. However, doll face, one addition that needs-NEEDS- to be done is ventilation. Need at least one roof vent, or gable vents, and maybe a window that opens in the door. No ventilation means 100+ degree temps inside=dead plants/disease.
So helpful. I had been looking for an easily modifiable design for a small indoor greenhouse I'm planning to make. Thanks so much!
WOW...IM LOVING THIS...AND MAY TRY SOMETHING LIKE IT.
Yet again, another inspirational video. And may I say videos like these give me motivation
That's awesome to hear man! I appreciate it
Great project. I went to the ryobi site and the page does not exist. Can you send or publish the full set of plans?
Very nice job especially for the 1st project. Now u r ready for more sophisticated jobs.
Excellent!!! I learned a bit about hanging that siding. I am using one of those cheap ready made green, houses and I am making one over it so it will be doubly insulated. Thanks for the video.
Do you have an estimate about how much the supplies/materials cost you total to construct this?
(Not including the tools like power saw, hammer, etc. you used)
New sub here by the way! Great channel
The link says “could not find requested project”. Where can we get the materials list/plans?
I'm building one now, but on the polycarbonate panels, I'm attaching a rubber tape with a sticky side to the wood, then putting the screws in. Very informative. Also, putting a compose box to put weeds and scraps into.
Oh I got that tape, but I also bought stick on velcro which I think would be simple. What are your thoughts,,?
That is a fantastic greenhouse build! Just what I would like to build myself. Thanks for the how to!
No problem!! Glad you enjoyed!
Did your dog take a dump at 4:54? If so, thumbs up!
He did indeed haha! Couldn't help but "squeeze" that one in there
Are you here to watch a how to video or watch the dog taking a dump?
That's David from drunken woodworker... he already knows how to.. "CHECK IT"... WHO'S IN YA HOUSE...
Yep lol
Yep, caught that too.
Excellent ! I'd love this exact size in my yard, Only thing I think this needs is some venting !
Open the door.....
Works fantastic, would recommend.
Never mind I see you posted the plans. Thank you!
Is the greenhouse anchored to the ground somehow? what keeps it in place if a strong storm blows in?
It's airtight, and heavy haha. Last wednesday we had 60 mph winds and it was fine. If it was constantly in a high wind area, I'd anchor it.
3:25 - That tip about the rubber washers was very useful. I have to make a rain guard for my bird feeders and planning to use this corrugated plastic roof.
3:31 - Foam closures, hallelujah! I thought this only came in wood which would let in water.
Why did you use white corrugated plastic below and not clear? Design looks?
The greenhouse looks fantastic! Love it! However:
No wood protection at all - no stain, poly, spar varnish...? The sun and rain will rot the wood, especially when you have to water the plants inside sitting on the wood shelves. Why not a plastic shelving structure inside, with a sand and decomposed granite floor area? Inside will get very muddy.
No ventilation vents and you need good air flow to prevent mold and mildew, black rot, rust, fusarium wilt, verticillium wilt, etc. So many fungal diseases. How about some vents with a small fan?
Thanks for a nice demo!
Tight Work. Thank you. Very very helpful. Especially with a food shortage coming.💯
👍 It looks nice and simple. Good job
Thank you for sharing 🙏 👏👏👏👏
one remark from a structural engineer: since the greenhouse is in the open field, and there is (as far as i can see) hardly any foundation, I'll give it one good storm before the whole thing falls over. you could simply add some weight (concrete) to the bottom of your walls to prevent this.
It's not in an empty field, it kinda looks like that from most of the camera angles, but there's a tree line next to and behind the greenhouse that block a decent amount of wind. In fact last Wednesday i think it was, we had a rain/hail storm with 60 mile and hour winds with up to 80mph gusts and it held up fine.
No he's right that is going to blow over at some point...
Ruudjuh08 is right about is. Check out some online wind load calculators. You'd be surprised at how much force it can generate. For example, a direct crosswind on a 9'x9' wall can generate well over a 1000 pounds of force. I'm sure the winds in Oklahoma can be pretty intense. I'd hate to see your hard work go to waste. I loved the build and the podcast though, looking forward to the next one! :)
I agree. you need to bolt it down.
A concrete floor isn't that difficult nor pricer to do, you should consider doing it to bolt that shed on to prevent it from flying away.
Even if this is unlikely to happen... You'd never know when/if it might happen.
Awesome dude - like the style of the intro and the walking tour too. Fun and inspiring to see how you adapt your videos in small/different ways each time.
That's awesome! thanks a lot man. Gotta keep it fresh
You’re so awesome. What a treasure of knowledge you have. I wish I knew how to build things
You are not dead... Go start learning and do it.
So cool, and I am gonna give this a go . Can’t thank you enough for sharing this project
Your videos are so calming and relaxing for some reason lol
I had no idea lol. But I'll take it!
It's true ! I spent 12 hours doing homework and this is my treat lol I think it's satisfying watching something being done :)
That's 'cause it's really sexy watching a guy work :-D
Mykayla Ladd 4:56 the dog was pooping at the background...sorry i just had to.
Eliz Cringle It really is.
Hey mate. April 2020 here. Ryobination link is still dead. Any chance the plans are elsewhere?
YES! I'd like to get those plans ASAP!
@@dvrowe64 agreed.. and where do I find the Clear Corrugated wall panels?
same!
Same
Same! Would love to build this soon!
My daughter is going to love this. Thanks
That is such a lovely greenhouse. Your video is marvellous. Simple instructions. Congratulations from Australia.
For having such a high profile, I was expecting some type of securement to the ground.
Not sure why so high when he couldve built out more.
Nice and beautiful project! But did you not forget about ventilation? window on the roof or somthing..
thank you so much!! Exactly what I have been looking for
Love all your videos!!! So so good
Would love to see more outdoor construction like this greenhouse
Beautiful craftsmanship
now to find where I can fit this in my apartment 😂
Haha! good luck
Lolololol
This video was inspirational and we decided to build our own, too. Your tip on paneling the door and then cutting afterward worked perfectly for us!
Beautiful!!!! I'm excited and happy for you...😁 Hard work, heart n soul...
I love this greenhouse.
I can't find the instructions on Ryobi Nation :( I would love to build something like this, just downsized.
Yeah, a year later... No reply.
PLEASE do something about those plans, Mike..... Some of us really want them! 💕🙏💕
Oh my gosh I really love it ♥️
Great work, great video.
Thanks for sharing.
You have gotten so good over the past year man. It's awesome to see the progression of someone from their first video to their latest. You are truly an inspiration to builders out there man, keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot Josh! It's really cool to hear that from another person. I appreciate it!
In 2022, this is a nice $10,000 project 😂
This is awesome!!!
Very cool to see some outdoor projects. If you do more, it could be good to see more of the space you're working with to see how things progress.
That's a cool idea! Will do
An important question would be materials list and project costs.
The wood costs about 5$ for 3 meter length wood panels and similar price for the boards. The corporate plasic panels Iv seen for 4$ a meter and you can get them in up 20ft lengths. I'd say this would cost about $300 to $500.
Not anymore wood is like gold .. gotta wait until prices go down
could you make a modern daybed :) ?
Hmmm, that could be a cool project!
Very well done. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic bid well done.nice to watch!
damn is that an awesome video
Thanks a lot man!!
Modern Builds You're welcome
Woooow really cool video and project man!
Thanks Cris!! I appreciate it
Thank you very much. It has really helped me to work out my project.
Well done!
3:00 "If you got the tool, you might as well use it"..Hey! That's what I tell my wife!! lol
Tie Down ? More importantly ventilation????
Open the door
There is really ventilation missing. All the hot air will be trapped especially under roof this TH-cam sponsored builds are ok for entertainment but he clearly didn’t research or garden before.
@@OscarHanzely I was thinking I would want a vent in it, and an actual floor. The size is perfect for me. I wish that it had a supply list as well.
Ventaltion no kidding ! Ryobi didn't have a tool for that !
@@mydailyreward2090 ha ha stop lol Thats way to complicated for the majority of you tube
I built a tool shed once, if I had watched this video, it would have been so much easier. Thanks for some great tips on this type of building.
thanks for sharing and giving a run through.
How much did this cost in total?
It came out to about $650, but the majority of that cost were in the corrugated panels... a little over $400 worth
Thank you at my school I am trying to build a green house and this is along the lines of something I definitely want to do.
Awesome!!! good luck
Two questions:
1. How do you anchor this down to keep it from blowing?
2. How do you regulate temperature to keep it from overheating?
Thanks. Nice video. I've finally convinced my wife to let me build a 10x16 greenhouse.
How did your work out?
It's beautiful!
Great project!! Thanks for sharing
Nice to finally see it after hearing about it on The Modern Maker Podcast, and congrats on your first big build! Turned out great :D
Thanks a lot!! And thanks for the question you sent in, I think it'll be on there next week
Glad y'all liked it!! We have notifications turned on for all you guys (plus the podcast) and are looking forward to hearing the next episodes ^_^
Sweet!!
@@EvanAndKatelyn You Two are my all time Favourite Couple on TH-cam! I Love how you encourage others.
I came here to see what the structural engineers, building engineers, Tom Silva's, professional greenhouse builders, drill professionals, nail professionals, stud professionals and the "I've never made one but you're wrong" engineers said. I wasn't let down. I've never seen someone getting so much shit for a freaking greenhouse!
Beautiful
Turned out nice, Mike. I know projects like this can take a while and get carried away, so good sticking with it.
No joke! there were definitely a few more curveballs than I was expecting haha. But that really comes with doing anything new for the first time
when it gets hot, I think you'll need exhaust and ventilation.
Yeah, The plan right now is just to open the door a bit. If that's not enough, I thought installing a simple window on the back of the greenhouse would provide some good cross ventilation.
They make a solar fan with a thermostat that should help.
Do you trust it without it beeing fixed to the ground? You mentioned the wind yourself... Beside that, nice job! Do you have any kitchen-projects coming up?
I do. We actually had a storm earlier in the week with 60 mph winds and hail and it held up fine. I was a bit worried before that, but knowing that it made it through that fine, I expect it to be ok
With regards to cinder blocks, Mike did you end up anchoring the frame to them anyway later?
Who ever heard of a greenhouse in a kitchen lol
I love this.
I want it!! Beautiful!
It came out awesome! I think you'll need to add some kind of window for better ventilation. But In any case you did a really nice job! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! I think so too. I'll either add a small window on the back wall or a vent on the roof. Still figuring it out
Great project! This one is definitely going on my 'when I finally have a house with a garden' to do list :)
That's awesome!! Thanks!
This is the DIY greenhouse I've been waiting for! Does the job and looks great. Thank you very much!
That's awesome! I'm glad you like it
I just came across your channel and I absolutely love love love this green house!!!! But I'd feel a lil squished so I'd have to make it a lil bigger
'you know what i say, if you've got the tools, use them' - man sponsered by ryobi.
but you did not show the base frame being mounted so as to secure it due to high winds etc???
Good job. Got a lot of good ideas from it.
one of my favorite builds!! so cool
That's awesome, Thanks man
At exactly 4:56
Doggo takes a boom boom 💥💩
😂
😂😂😂😂
*A little storm and the neighbor down the street will get a free greenhouse placed in their backyard.*
This gives me ideas for my mom’s garden.
An amazing job 💯. Thanks 👍
imagine what will happen to your hand if your aim is off with that pneumatic nail gun. keep at least a fist of distance between your hand and that nail gun.
This guy blatantly is an amateur with the brander he's gona get hurt one day and wonder why
Totally building this for my, ummm, tomatoes.
Haha!! yeah.... me too
Mister Gupton u sure its for tomatoes?
My tomatoes are Dank AF!
Amazing! nice job, congrats
Production quality is getting so much better, love your content dude.
Sweet!! That's awesome to hear! Thanks Taylor
This is going to sound really cheesy, but I've got a drill and some hand tools, and I'm saving up for a miter saw to work on a project. Have you ever thought about doing a tutorial on a mini-home? I have a homeless man I've met a few months back, and I give him food, water ect very often. We've come to be friends and I saw someone else on TH-cam made a tiny home for a homeless woman. It wouldn't be a real "home" but anything better than his tarps he's made into a tent would be good. I think I could make one with just a drill and miter saw, if I had a tutorial I know I could do it.
Hmmm. First off, that's awesome that you do that/want to do that. I don't have anything like that planned, but maybe someday. It could definitely be done with a drill and miter saw.
Yeeey! Tiny house would be awesome summer project! :))
Chris Sampson You have a heart of gold mate. May 2018 be the best year you have lived. We need more people like you on this planet.

There's actually a kid who built a small home. Mind you, it involved stairs so if your homeless man has joint issues, it probably wouldn't work for him.
Green house building videos never mention the following;
- Bees / moths do not visit greenhouses easily and lots of plants need them.
- Nitrogen build up will kill plants quickly so greenhouse levels need to be monitored and ventilated accordingly.
- Heat is not consistent on all days so your greenhouse needs a way to deal with fluctuations or die off will occur.
I live in an area that occasionally gets some strong winds. You may want to anchor that greenhouse with some 4 or 5 ft earth anchors and tie down straps. It seems tall and narrow, so it wouldn't take a lot of wind to topple that awesome build.
hi bro. I made my own greenhouse after watching your video. I took your greenhouse as a prototype and designed my own. i made it 2 shelf and a shelf on the ground. actually not a shelf. I just covered the area under the shelf with wood, the same width as the shelves, and filled it with soil. I put flowers in pots on the shelves and I seeding vegetables on the floor. thank you that you are inspired me
