Mine is inside. I have 3 thick cables that run across the top so I can slide it back and forth. My fans do a good job getting the temp in range if need be. If I can hang out in there for hours, my plants are fine :lol:

Outside. If inside gets a pocket of hot air between it and walls. Causing temp increase inside.
We put ours up in spring and down in fall so it won't hold snow over winter.

I tried inside last year, and did not like it. Also, bees and dragonflies got trapped behind the cloth, and died because they couldn't find their way back out.

I’ve done inside and outside and find outside to be more effective. When you do it on the inside much of the heat is already inside of your greenhouse.
