The Sun Room

[Alaskan]

If it does shed....the ground will be saturated....it will likely get very humid inside too.

Not sure how...

With frozen ground it doesn't wick moisture.....

I have dirt floored coops, and get berms up against them..

Moisture only comes in if the slopes aren't good to get water to drain away...

I have built up inside the coops, and ditched around the base.... works fine.

I get a berm up against my dirt floor greenhouse.... again... no moisture issues.

Good to know.

I was thinking the heating from the sun pouring in would potentially keep the ground around the edges thawed. Kind of a sauna if it gets hot AND humid theory.

This will be my first full winter with my greenhouse. I haven't had truly frozen ground here....yet.
