I've noticed a lot of people getting and planning on building greenhouses and coldframes. I just wanted to remind everybody that glass filters out UV light, but plexiglass doesn't

plexie glass is very expensive, and I think there are very few places to get it.
A member on TF was trying a piece out he managed to get. But not sure of the results.
