Holly... I need to show this thread to my partner... I already got complains that the GH I am planing is way to big (16.5"x13.5")...

That looks like a great house, and thanks a lot for showing the foundation... looking forward to seeing the final result! Congrats!

Yeah, the forecast for today is clearing and 50F. and tonight, with clear skies, the temp will drop to 26F. If that happens for any length of time, we could lose leaves on the trees.

Oh, that's terrible! They are saying 31º*F here tonight (Michigan). No snow, but lots of rain and very strong, cold winds.

:rollhappy::rollhappy::rollhappy: It's great to hear you guys are as crazy as I am..

I'm falling to peer pressure. My husband, the DIY & welder, says it wouldn't cost that much to expand mine. It's 15 years old, so the polycarbonate probably should be replaced sooner rather than later!

Tonight 30-36 :sob:. Most of next week nightime lows in the low 40's. Back to the real world when living in the midwest!

 

[Yoyo_Jo]

Oh yay! - we're not the only place on earth with snow in May. :clap:

Your greenhouse is coming along great Ross!

Ross

Be careful with all those extension chords in the rain.:wink:

Or is that all pneumatic hose?

 

[Ross]

I'm not doing the work, but I believe the blue thing is a pneumatic hose.

 

[biothanasis]

Good progress, You can tell it's not a government project!

Good progress, You can tell it's not a government project!

Heh, heh, heh...if you can believe it, it is worse here in Japan. Nobody is leaning on a shovel, but things progress amazingly slowly.

Man Ross, you are just trying to make us all jealous! A playground indeed. Enjoy...

 

[SlipperFan]

It's going up very quickly -- bet you can hardly wait...

 

[Ross]

Man Ross, you are just trying to make us all jealous! A playground indeed. Enjoy...

It may be my playground, but right now, our little cat, Trouble, thinks it's HIS HUGE LITTER BOX! :evil: We have to escort him when he goes out to make sure he doesn't use it, again.

 

[etex]

Amazing progress made already! It is so great that you are walking us through the process of building your greenhouse! Looks like it will be fabulous! OK, a little jealous.
Can't wait to see more!
