I have one that's a bit bigger. Used it last spring. I was a bit disappointed at how cold it got at night.... therefore it wasn't much use for seedlings. I'm thinking about trying it over my tomato bed this year. Maybe I'll be able to get decent tomatoes if I can keep them warmer. Our climate here (zone 3A ~ Alberta) doesn't seem to have enough hot days/nights for good tomato growth. But as prairiedog says... make sure it's nailed down good. The other issue I had with mine was the snow that came once it was up. Heavy.... I had to go out about every 2 hours in the snowstorm and sweep it off so it wouldn't collapse.

Thanks Lily, that was my biggest concern.

I grow short season varieties of tomatoes. I have some ripen on the vine that were direct seeded last year.

I found these kind of greenhouses perfect to get your tomatoes out of the wind..then to truly use it as a greenhouse.
I myself have a coldbox with old windows for early spinach and such and works very good for you seedlings..and a home made greenhouse to get my tomatoes out real soon...but the greenhouse for seedlings..better make something from wood off the ground and a little heater with thermostat as a back up...just incase
