Well Barefoot, I am speechless, everybody else used up all the superlative adjectives! Lovely, lovely, lovely!
So you had no problems with humidity causing mildews or molds last summer? Everything looks so healthy!
Thank you thistle..I had no problems with humidity control or disease in the greenhouse all summer, I kept the screen doors and windows open most days/nights and it seemed to help..Only closed them whem we had a bad storm/wind or too cool evenings..
Now late summer/early fall I started to get a little mildew on my climbing Armenian cukes and on my Sakatas Sweet melonand the bottom of a few tomato plants...but by that time most of the crops were done producing..I was so exhausted with so much going on that I kind of lacked energy and didnt care, so I ripped the plants out..I find good air circulation helps tremendously and I spaced all my tomato plants 2 1/2 feet apart w/cages..

Wow Ginny, that is one fabulous greenhouse! Definitely something to be proud of. :cool:

I got a set of sliding patio doors when my sister remodeled and a couple windows I found at my local recycle center (they don't take plate glass, so lucky for me!) I'm doing what you did, saving them up. It will probably take me 15 years too! ;)

I got a kick out of the jungle photo too! :thumbsup

Thank you journey..Sounds like you have the beginnings of a beautiful GH to me..Your off to a great start..keep looking out for those giveaway/ free windows and patio doors..People will start remodeling (because of economy) starting in spring..Take everything you can get..You can make it work! Hopefully you wont need to wait 15 years..Hang in there! It will be worth it!:)
