Be careful it don't get to hot in the sun. Small green houses get really hot inside

Nice! Congratulations! That should extend your growing season a bit by keeping the plants warmer longer in the evening and warming them up sooner in the morning. But as Cory mentioned, be careful to vent it properly on warm sunny days or don't leave the plants in it on those days (they'll be fine outside without a greenhouse when it's warm and sunny anyway).

Enjoy :)

Thanks for the advice! I've already opened the flap to let some heat out and keep it ventilated. It's going to help so much because right now the temperatures around here are dipping down into the low 30's at night. Now I just need to fill it up....I've already let my wife know about the mystery box since my birthday is coming up :-P, if only we could catch it in stock
