alright then. I didn't know that.
Worked for a tree care company for 15 years as a consulting Arborist. I use to go to 3 to 5 clients a day and diagnose what was wrong with their trees and recommend treatments that the company would do. Everything from pine bark beetles to xyella in olive trees. It was a fun job got to meet people of all walks of life, super rich to movie stars and people that I did not want to know what they did for a living ;-). Sad that when the economy crashed the company did not quit spending like times were good and they had to cut so many employes just to avoid BK..

I came out on the morning of 8-14 after an all night wind and rain storm to find this.

We stood her back up and fixed the cage around her. This is what made me go through the entire greenhouse and wire tied all the cages to the raised beds.

Those 2 plants right at the entrance are blue cheese.

The greenhouse project is moving along. The framework is up and the plastic arrived today. The plants look fantastic but we had to take the hops down because they were full of aphids up high. It is disappointing but there don't seem to be any problems with the girls. So far so good. Here are a few garden pics. The Northern Lights are finally coming along but it looks like it will be mid Nov. for harvest.2014-09-22 17.34.41.jpg2014-09-22 17.42.06 HDR.jpg 2014-09-22 17.29.23 HDR.jpg 2014-09-22 17.37.39.jpg 2014-09-22 17.35.36.jpg

So I've been looking back through all my pictures from this year.

I must say I have done a lot better then I had expected to do. With moving into this new house in June, having to build this greenhouse and start from scratch. All my plants were started from seed, then transplanted into 3 gallon bags. Then transported here in the back of a U-haul at the same time we were moving our belongings into this new house.

It's been a long rewarding summer though and looking back, I wouldn't change a thing.

So to pay it forward, (if anyone is interested) I have enough pictures to do a write up on how this pressure treated greenhouse was built. (To date $2,250)

Even though I took most of the summer to build mine due to the fact we had so many other things we needed to deal with on this property in order to live here. This should be a fairly easy project for anyone that's good with their hands.

Hey bro, just an idea for next season....if you use remesh wire for the cages & make them big enough to go around your boxes they won't blow over....good luck bro I like your work..

Little show and tell. About 3 more weeks until full harvest. Happy smoking :)

Just a FYI... I have a couple extra rooms in my home that are available for your harvest to dry and cure... Just send me what you have and I will make sure you get it back :hump:

LOL

I live on a farm, we have the right to shoot any animal that is trespassing so consider yourself an animal if I ever find you in my field
