Eliot Coleman's greenhouse system, which does slide on rails to permit two
crops of different requirements, is described in great detail in a little
booklet he has written called Winter Harvest Manual. He goes into greenhouse
construction, coverings, plus biological info on crops etc. We sell this
book for $15 plus $2 shipping. (Am I allowed to say that? My apologies if
not.)
