Rob, just for you I took a couple of pictures of our greenhouse after the snow.  I posted them in the photos area.

ha!  We're having a snow storm here today.  The greenhouse was 42 this morning.  The fish are 55.

hehe... it was 50 degrees on that day. i would say this greenhouse is only rated for southern winters. ...i guess thats the trade off for dealing with 100 degree summers.. mild winters... last winter, i ran the heater once... because i was cold while working in the greenhouse.

Thanks Matt, seven years of trial and error have culminated to this final layout... i have a “one-up plan” that will really blow you away… its coming!

..."You seemed in a bit of a hurry in the vid"... thats funny, all my life folks have said.. "for a guy with such short legs, you sure walk fast" ...good habit i guess... gotta keep moving! 

im installing two large wicking beds in the empty space this week, and will post another video when its complete.

Wow, looks outstanding mate...  It's official then Rob, "I hate you"..   hahaa.   Joking aside, it's about the most organised system i've seen, something for me to aspire to when i get started next year. You semmed in a bit of a hurry in the vid, was hopin you'd take a leasurely strole but it was more of a skip :)  Reguardless, Thanks very much for putting it up, really appreaciate it. Matt.

I could almost smell that basil from here..

i ment to say.. keep the basil warm in the winter and lettuce cool in the summer. look for a write up on this mini quonset in the AP association newsletter.
