Understanding my greenhouse

[Homegrownmom]

Hi all!

I have 3, 3ft X 8ft raised beds outside and a metal framed greenhouse that I bought second hand and the plastic was ripped so I rewrapped it. In the summer the greenhouse gets crazy hot, but in the winter, the soil in there (i have 3 raised beds in there) freezes. What can I grow in there? I live in the North East USA and it can get pretty cold during winter. Any ideas? Last yr was the first yr I had it and I threw in a few randoms to see how they would do. I planted a couple tomatoes, peppers, onions and beets and they all died.

Try to find out when your last frost is and plant tomatoes around that time.
Planting too early is fatal
I keep my greenhouse door open when it is really hot and you might be advised to cover it with shade netting.

Keep trying, it's worth it.

OH is trying to grow winter cucumbers in our greenhouse, which has a thermostatically controlled heater. This is an experiment. Otherwise, everything is snugly overwintered in there, fuscias, carnations, chrysanths, and all his many cuttings.
