Farmin is tuff

This is a short update. I was going to have a picture of the seedlings but, I left the covers on yesterday and being Florida, it got hot in the green house and the seedlings cooked!

So, i checked the alumac and saturday was a good day to start seedlings, so I replanted them all. Some days i wonder if I should stick to chickens as most of the eggs I plant come up as chickens and the rest are ... eggplant of course. j/k

Green house nears completion

After much procrastination and gnashing of teeth i tackled the green house film today. It was going easy enough when the wind kicked up and blow it all off the pipe. Ginger decided that was a good time to find another place to nap and promptly moved across the yard. I got the film back on and then finished the top. It is surprisingly stable once all the film is on and anchored to the pipe. I used plumbers tape to secure the frame to the anchores which should hold up as well as the film does to higher wind gusts. We will see. Now, to finish the door and add a bench which i will do in the next few days and I will start the seeds for the spring garden. Fun fun
