Lets see if this worked.

If it did, this was my begining. I had to relocate a well establised pomograte tree to another part of the yard.

Rock on. It worked :headbang:

Then we had to create the foundation for our greenhouse (Pull out all the Crab grass). We had to make a lot of passes with the little rototil. I didn't know if the little guy could do it at first.

Then the construction of the greenhouse. At this point I did not take as many pictures as I wanted to. My focuas was getting the frame up before the spring winds hit us. The town of Ridgecrest mainly get dry storms with winds up to 70 MPH at times. so it had to be strong.

This is the last picture I took before I the first of the winds hit. Since, I have added more bracing and started to dig the hol for the sump tank. I added more bracing because it was rockin n roll in the winds and I knew that wouldn't work when I put the plastic on. Now it's pretty steady.

I will be taking more pictures now that I have add pictures here. I like to hear comments and advice. It help me stay motivated. Especially now that I'm pot committed. I'm at a point of no return.

Always impressed with the greenhouse builds in The US, neat, tidy and aesthetically pleasing.
Unlike ours here, couple bits of poly, chuck some shade cloth or tarp on it, couple cable ties, job done, beer o'clock...

Looks good Aubster.

Looking good! Decent sized greenhouse, the plants should be happy inside protected from the winds.

Thanks for the complements. It means a lot. I'll try and put some more pic up today.
I have to make another trip to the hardware store today and finish that sump tank. The longer it sits the more the design changes.:D:D
