Maybe that will be an upcoming project. I'd love to have a good greenhouse. But, I'm usually too late or too early, when I want to do it...

Thanks for the link, Johnny!

I definitely have to build one or two greenhouses. I am still going to build it using my plans here, because the frame should last a very long time.

I am thinking about making a half of the greenhouse also, using the plans and make it attached to the South side of our house with a door from the house going into it.
I would love to walk out into the greenhouse in my slippers and sit at a table and drink my morning coffee with my Queen surrounded by plants Smiley

I'd like to do that as well... with Karnie, that is.. LOL We have the perfect south wall for it, too. I just have to find time and money... at the same time.

I do all my things slowly over a long time too, that is just the way it is. I will still be working on my ever growing list until the day I die, at least that is the plan

Starting on my quanza hut style Johnny Max green house tomorrow.  Taking a foot off the 20 foot length for a 6" overhang on each end.  Installing an old storm door.  Later this season solar fan system and vent on other end.  Putting duck run under work tables on one side and chicken run on other side.  Plastic for now and clear roofing asma (as soon as money allows).  Lips sealed

I want to build one attached to my brewery, so I can vent CO2 into it.
