Before I saw this post, I looked at your previous one, (and the photos) and got excited because you've got the same GH as I do. LOVE yours! The foundation is really cool, as is the rock walls...

Thanks Ray. I know you're nearby (and I've heard you speak on a few occasions - we've met.) I have the majority of my paphs and phals inside under lights although there are a few out there that are...

It's an 8 x 15 Sunglow - freestanding and about 7 feet at the center peak. What's a "catalytic propane heater"?

Thanks Ray - I forgot about that style and I've seen them at Home Depot on...

I bit the bullet and went electric. Put it a 4000 watt 240volt wall pack heater yesterday and temps last night never got below 62. (high 30's ambient) I have the heater on setting two so tonight...

I'm feeling your pain! And looking for a place to whine as well. I've got a (possible) similar situation that just makes you want to sit down in the greenhouse and bawl.

P.S. - I think the failure some people experience is in their choice of plant to put in S/H. Many take readily to it but many don't. Even Ray admits that. It's a try it and see approach. Paphs,...

I don't know who a distributer might be but their website (if you hadn't seen it) is sunglogreenhouse.com (http://www.sunglogreenhouse.com). Maybe you can find out from them directly.
