Little Growies Like Their New Home



All of the plants from the old greenhouse have been moved to the new greenhouse. Many of them have true leaves and need to be transplanted to larger containers. The other shelves have been built, so there is a place to water them. What is not in this greenhouse is a way to catch rainwater. The city of Charlotte had a sale on some fancy-schmantzy rain barrels last year. The one that was purchased is still not installed by the house. That will be the weekend project to install that and pipe it into the greenhouse.

One of the shop-lights in the ceiling still won’t work. Getting it going will be an afternoon project this week. The brick floor is 2/3 complete. Hopefully it will also get finished this week. If there is no rain (fat chance), the Bambi fence will get finished this weekend except for the gate. When the fence and the greenhouse are complete, there are only small projects to accomplish.

There was no room in the old greenhouse to finish planting the rest of the seeds needed for the garden. Now there is room to proceed with that task. Here’s hoping for a great garden season.
