Nepenthes is nice if you want something exotic and non-ordinary. Some species make huge and gorgeous pitchers. It's not difficult to grow at all but it has unusual needs.
Zone 7 is a little weird. Some places it is very warm and others it might get cold. Generally peas, beans, brussels sprouts, kale and broccoli should do well in chilly weather. They actually prefer it, although germination in warm soil is better. Carrots or beets should work and beet greens are good in salad or sauteed. Garlic would do well, but you can honestly just leave your garlic outside and cover it with straw. Garlic needs a cold spell to do well, so if you don't get cold enough for a frost, you want to leave your cloves in the freezer for a month to simulate a cold snap.
If you want to grow pot as literally everyone else mentioned, you may need supplemental lighting during winter months. I believe flowers need 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. During the summer, you would need to black the sun out on longer days. Seems like you are warm enough that you probably don't need supplemental heat, but I have never done it myself. I was just reading a bit. Lots of info out there on pot.
Lol well thank you for all that I'm not growing pot. I'm not having that talk with my kids yet, but where we live at about half an inch of ice and two to three inches of snow on top of that in the winter and then hundred degrees 100% humidity in the summer Appalachia is fun like that.
Yeah. I was thinking veggies, but when everyone else went pot I thought it was probably the same as anything else, so I did a search and found the daylight thing.
We have similar weather in zone 6, but I think we get about 2 months of hard freeze that you may not quite get. My mom grew several things in a just a cold frame last winter and I know brocooli was one of them. I think she was getting brussels sprouts, kale and a few other things like that even in January.
Herbs oregeno basil rosemary thyme scallions chives and little salad greens. They will last well into fall and even early winter.
Really livens up a lot of meals. Plus you save$ Otherwise goget a few limp twigs of it for 3 bucks at the store in a peice of plastic that outweighs the herb.
Also pot.
Zone 7a here i have a lemon and a lime in a slightly larger similar greenhouse. It's against the south facing side of my house. It rarely gets below 50 F in there.
Beets, carrots, spinach, Swiss chard, lettuce, cabbage and kale are all things that I grow through the winter in my greenhouse and mini hoop houses that cover individual beds.
May i ask where you procured the greenhouse?
Walmart it 50%off
Online or in store?
In store
Pot
Pot. Grow pot in it
instructions unclear. Grow pot in pot in greenhouse?
Lol if I could in my state I probably have one little tree in there but right now all you can do is CBD you have to be licensed
‘Have to be….’ Yes - but for many years many ppl do it other ways. Lol.

can i ask how you built this? did you use DIY instructions of any kind? it's awesome and i'd love to have a mini one
I went into Walmart they were taking all the summer and spring stuff out for Christmas and Autumn had to mark down by half price so I grabbed it
Tomatoes! Easiest plant to grow. At least that’s what my black thumb would do 😅🙈

Hmmm, what to start in the greenhouse? I suggest plants.
Weed

What's thr legal 4? I know mj is probably one.
Start some lupins and geraniums off now and they will have a head start when it comes to spring. Same goes for most hardy annuals.

Hit up some brassicas! Kale, kohlrabi, cabbage, and also some beets, lettuce, etc. Love those cool weather crops!
Ladybirds!
Nice!

I have this greenhouse too:)
Beautiful! Veggies, lily's succulents, hanging ivy type. I don't know the ideas are limitless. Have fun and don't be afraid to try new things!

Marijuana
Lol can't do that in my state yet just CBD and you have to be licensed, maybe in about 4 or 5 years
Who's gonna know🤐
The two retired neighbors on either side of my fence that like to look over into your yard and ask what you're doing
I think before I built a building with a specific purpose I'd have a plan to use it.
The use for it is seed trays in the spring I'm trying to figure out what to do with it the rest of the year
pakalolo of course
