What is the temperature range for this greenhouse; i.e., can it withstand winter temps of 0 degrees in the dead of a typical Ohio winter?

With a greenhouse you add +1 to your zone. For example, if you're in zone 6 you would be 7 with a greenhouse depending on the temps ofc. So, that being said. Most likely not. If you must have it up during the winter I would suggest some kind of heater. Also be sure no snow lays on the top. I seen some people say this does not hold heat well. So make sure any places for heat to escape are sealed good.

Mine was grown in east TN and we had temps in the low 90's.I would think it would do fine(it was planted in a shady area)

You would have to be sure the bulb does not touch the vinyl sides of the greenhouse, and that none of your electrical connections can get wet. Your electrical cord should be plugged into a ground fault circuit in case water contacts the connections. Other than that, your grow light should be fine. I used a heat lamp in mine last winter when the outside temperature fell below 28ºF, using the safety precautions I mentioned, and had no problems.

Yes. the internet says that it grows in zones 3 to 11. I don't live that far north but my winters are cold. Mine does fine.

The lowest temperature it can tolerate is 45 degrees but depending on your zone you can summer it outside and winter it inside. Watch for spider mites and keep in full sun for best results. Most passiflora are fairly hardy.

I have the 2' model which I often use during the winter months, but I live in the California Bay Area; the temperature rarely gets to 35-40F. The heated mat is supposed to provide warmth (to help sprout seeds) to 20F above ambient. You may need to provide additional heat in your garage depending on how cold it gets outside.

Absolutely not! I would NOT waste my money on this greenhouse, again! It did not last even a month it is a piece of junk.Seams started to rip within a month

I believe that this plant will take as low as -10. If it does get frost bite I would think that the roots will survive. Does it hit that temp? Pierre...

We have had ours up for nearly a year. It weathers very well winter and summer. Only concern for us is if we have strong winds and a branch falls, it slices the plastic pretty easily. We put a layer of clear hard plastic roofing material on the top of the greenhouse to give it greater strength and covered it with the plastic. The plastic itself wears well for 3 to 4 years. Of course, depending on your weather where you are...

I think you would die heat stroke! It get extremely hot in greenhouse. 80 degree weather working in the greenhouse the temp was about 95 to 100 degrees and I got heat exhaustion. Would be careful

I live in Washington state and it doesn't get that cold so I can't answer your question. We do love it though and it stays at 104 degrees for us.

I live in middle TN & our weather is similar. Put in a large pot , leave it on a porch out of direct light in the summer, and bring it in when the temp starts getting cold (about 45F). It should be okay. I had surgery & wasn't able to bring mine in this winter & it died-my fault. I will get another one in the spring. Also, they are not very big plants. Be sure to google search for the right amount of different soil: high grade potting soil, mulch & I think at least one other. You can buy these at any place that specializes with plants. Just mix them up & plant- DO NOT OVER WATER. Good Luck!

I bought it for the purpose of using in a cold frame. Seedlings that were started indoors are ready to go outside to be tempered for the greenhouse (that is not built yet!)

Considering the issues I've had with this plant it is clearly tropical and MUST have extended periods of warmth of above 75 and above degrees with bright sunshine in order to grow and thrive. Anything less and it just hangs on until hot weather returns. Weather colder than 60 degrees with no direct sun will ensure it quickly succumbs to rot or fungus and dies. Even in Central Texas it's been a challenge to create the ideal conditions for this plant. So if you live in NYC and rarely use the heat and only have North facing windows which means little direct, hot warm sunshine the plant will not survive very long there. You'd have to create a mini-greenhouse enclosure to even have a chance.

Hi there Swamp Sparky, thank you for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds. Many, if not all of the seeds, would produce well in Hardiness Zone 8b. Of course, each different plant type will require it's on unique care when planting. Although the low temperatures aren't extreme, they can still be cold enough to kill tomatoes if they aren't kept indoors until those low temperatures are past. Some of the plants won't do well if planted in direct sunlight where the high summer temperatures reach into the 90's on a pretty regular basis so locate those plants accordingly as well. I've thought about adding this information to the bonus downloadable Planting, Sprouting and Storing Guide that you receive access to with your purchase of our survival seeds, but that's a daunting task that will take a huge time commitment. Thank you again for your interest in our 50 Varieties Heirloom Seeds.

Sorry, but I do not know. I am near Albany, NY, where we have cold winters. I bought my plant in late Summer and it grew tremendously. However, we brought it in the house for the first winter to give it a chance to develop a little more before we try leaving it out all year. Once we plant it outside, we plan to plant it near the house on the south facing side to give it the best chance of survival.

The greenhouse is of superb quality and will withstand all seasons in any climate. It is not meant to be taken down and takes considerable time to assemble and secure. I suggest adding an extra vent and fan because it does get very hot inside even with shade cloth.
