I live in Upstate New York (Zone 5) and am doing my first garden this year. So far, it has gone very well and we are considering building our own greenhouse next year to get an early start on the season. What I can’t seem to find out anywhere is exactly when do I want to start my seeds? If anyone can give me some guidance here, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

It’s one of those little plastic greenhouses, like this http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gardman-4-Tier-Mini-Greenhouse/dp/B00080KPA2 thus there’s very little space.

There is a shed from Handy Home Products at http://www.handyhome.com/lowes/solarshed.htm that I am considering. I wonder, though, if it would get too hot for use as a shed even with the greenhouse ventilation. Any experience out there or suggestions?
