Moro and I were talking on chat the other night and were discussing greenhouses, I was thinking of building a moveable one and was leaning towards that. I sat down with a pen and paper today and was sketching it out but the one thing that kept bothering me was the fact I had to stash it somewhere when not using it.
So I decided to design and build a take down greenhouse
To be continued
so the next day spring was here again
so like all my projects I went and picked up some wood
and cut a bunch of 4 foot sections
and started framing out some boxes
and made 4 of them
I really need to do a better job of cleaning out the beds in the spring
we stood up a section and butted the edge to the outside of the raised bed and screwed it down
and stood up another and screwed that down and the two together
and repeated the process on the other side
I cut and assembled two 4x4 sections
and screwed them down and framed out a door and screwed a support onto the fence
I cobbled together a ridge beam
and screwed that down to the top of the door and the support
I just need to put some supports for the top, wrap it in plastic and throw on a door and I'll be good to go, probably going to let the chickens run wild in it for a week or so to clear the beds for me
I was hoping to finish up yesterday, but winter came back, time to wait
with this I plan on removing the plastic in may and planting some vining veg and let them crawl up the framework for support, that way I can get dual use out of it
