I am new to the forum and have been reading everything I can on the forum.
I am wanting to build one nursery greenhouse and one very large greenhouse and expand to more greenhouses slowly.
The nursery will have room for water storage and a wood boiler. I want to heat the floors in both greenhouses.
I am also hoping that I can use some solar panels to heat the storage water when the sun shines unless this is not a good idea and have the wood boiler to keep it heated at night and during the colder days in the winter. I am not sure what I can grow in the winter because I will wait and see how everything works first.
I am thinking that the nursery might have tripple wall polycarbonate and the larger greenhouse will have double layers of poly.
The Nursery will have about 1500 under glass and the larger greenhouses will have 3000 sq ft under glass.
How can I figure out my heating requirements with just the wood boiler for the greenhouses. What kinds of things do I need to look at to make this work?
Thanks everyone.
