Has anyone built a greenhouse and incorporated a climate battery for the winter months? If so how well did it work.

In the process of building one there is a book called the forest garden greenhouse that I used for all my info I can post some photos

Also I’m in zone 5, 7800’ ...
Yah I was thinking about one when I lived in Michigan now I’ve moved back down to the south and while the winters aren’t anywhere near as hard I’d like to continue growing my Veggies and cannabis in an outdoor setting while using little to no energy to control the temps.

I have built 3.the biggest was 55 gallon drum as the manifold for “French drain” piping with a “sock “ around it . Stack near the roof of greenhouse with thermostatic controlled fan ect . Raised soil temps at 8800’ approx 20 degrees (from 50 to 70 degrees)
Works great !

Go down about halfway thru the page I posted some pictures of a small climate battery that I made for a 10 x 8 bed
