greenhouse re-do

notice anything different?

 

guylines from our tent.

here's hoping for veggies this winter. we've got a few sprouts, but not as many as we did when we planted the first time. it's supposed to be warm the next few days, and we're hoping that will encourage those little seeds to finally make an apperance....

greenhouse re-do

today i planned to take pictures of our little seedlings growing in our greenhouse and write up a post about how happy we were everything was growing so nicely...

yesterday we had tremendous winds and one huge swirl

knocked our happy little greenhouse down...

there were no survivors.

we'll start over again this weekend.

sad sad day.

mike is going to figure out a way to anchor it

more securely to avoid further catastrophe.

green living...

what is that you ask??

a small greenhouse!

this summer, we found this small treasure at a garage sale. mike had been wanting to get one to work towards starting our own seedlings in the spring for the garden, as well as trying a "cold" greenhouse to grow veggies through the winter...

so, this past weekend, we set everything, and we'll see what happens. we've done lots of research, and we're hoping that we've picked good solid cold weather veggies... we didn't too much as we aren't sure how it's going to go, but we're excited to try it!

on the menu is

cabbage

broccoli

carrots

beets

lettuce

it's small this year, but we're excited. we've purchased a heat lamp that we'll keep in the green house for warmth... and here's hoping for the best!
