Progress on Greenhouse and Bambi Fence

Except for the most recent plantings most of the seeds in the greenhouse have sprouted. Cilantro, Eggplant and Nasturtium still need to be planted and there will be late incremental plantings of most of the other varieties. The marigolds are starting to get true leaves and will need to be repotted soon.

The new greenhouse has been ordered and should arrive by the weekend. The details on foundation and shelves are still being worked out, but it is hoped that the foundation will get done this weekend. If it doesn’t rain at least the ground will be prepared.

The Bambi fence has been slowed down some by wet ground. The posts phase had almost been completed when the rains came and the ground was too wet to fill and tamp the holes. That got done Tuesday. Now the braces are being cut in and nailed. If no rain comes the ground should be dry enough to stretch fabric by the weekend.

Some progress has been made on the front porch. Doug was too busy to cut and plane the cladding boards for the columns, but that is done now. The first board was put up Tuesday to try the glue. It is good that only one board was done, because the glue did not hold. More glue and more clamps went on yesterday with a hope for improved results.
