| Details for Canadian Cold Frame Plans
Free Canadian Cold Frame plans - A cold frame plan that is very manageable to build & uses cedar and a window pane lid. Cold frames are useful things for gardeners to have on hand. They enable you to grow plants that wouldn’t normally do well in your area and to start seeds and raise seedlings early. You can use them to protect tender plants well into fall and even to force bulbs—such as tulips, hyacinths, daffodils and crocuses—during the winter months. The design of this cold frame includes the conventional salvaged wooden storm window top. But what sets it apart is its system of booster frames, which allows you to adjust the height of the cold frame to suit the needs of your plants. By adding booster frames beneath the main frame, even mature plants can be shielded from frosts. For durability, make the frames from 1 x 8 cedar boards.
