I can imagine that you would love to have a big greenhouse. I don't even have space for a small one. To bad. Can it be so cold at your place, even in summer. Then it must be nice to have a greenhouse, even if it's a small one. We don't have that problem from cold nights during summer. Only the rain is, so I have to get them inside when the weather forecast is saying it's going to rain.

In this part of Canada the summers are warm and dry, sometimes hot during the summer. It doesn't rain much in summer at all. Just cool at night. It rains all winter, which provides good humidity indoors during the winter. When we lived in Ontario, it was bitterly cold in the winter, so it was very dry indoors. It snows all winter there.

This year we had a very cold winter. A lot of snow and ice. So that's bad for the humidity. Because you have to heat the room more. At this moment we have really nice weather. It sounds strange, but it's raining to little. At least for nature. It is a problem for the Vanda's ofcourse, when they are standing outside. I only think it will start raining during the summer. We had that problem last year. You must be glad that you don't have that problem in your part of Canada.

We used to use a humidifier when we lived in Ontario. I do love havining 65 to 80% humidity in the winter, though it is very dull and rainy. This year spring is late, it is taking a long time to warm up. My poor koi are barely showing themselves. The warm, sunny summers here are wonderful! Though, we do need to water the garden a lot. I actually wouldn't have room for a big greenhouse either. There is a good sized pond, waterfall and bog filter taking up space. My husband doesnt mind, it means less lawn to mow!

To bad spring is late. But it must be nice to have warm and sunny summers. So you have a pond with koi. Very nice. Koi are pretty. I can imagine your husband don't mind. Mowing the lawn is never nice. But space to have more Vanda's is nice.

What do you mean with this. Do you also sell your own things on ebay. What are you trying then? And what does the number mean?

I already did see what you mean. Very nice. Impressive. Nice to be so handy with your hands. I can't do that. But then again i'm good with my Vanda's. Good luck with selling on ebay.

Ofcourse your neighbours like looking at them. That must be a pretty sight. I would love that too.
