Default New kit greenhouse built in Apr. 08

Hello all,

We built a kit Greenhouse in Apr. of this year to house our growing collection of more temperature sensitive orchids, as we live in So. Cal. we have several orchids that grow outdoors year round(Catts., Schms., Onc.,Lealias,and a couple of others).

We have a small backyard so we had to get a 8*6 footer, but I needed the height since I am 6'7" tall, so we built a 2 1/2' brick wall and sealed it with water proofing and paint, built a lower door under greenhouse door to act as a vent and a way to get in without having to step over a wall.

So far the greehouse is great, many more orchids that we can grow. Some Catts. that were outdoors growing good are doing way better in there. Now we have over 300 orchids and still looking for some other small ones.

The greenhouse came with tables built in and is double polycarbonate (holds heat in cold weather very well), also a roof vent with an auto vent opener adjustable to different degrees. Greenhouse took 2 days to build, 1 to assemble and one to seal and chaulk and set in place and secure.

We are very pleased with this kit and would highly recommend it, the plants are happy and so are we.

Thank you. Gary
