I am proud of myself for creating a budget for the greenhouse once the money got into my account. I made a list of the materials I needed and priced them out, in some cases choosing the best price and in other cases choosing a local source I felt loyalty to. I was afraid that if I just went to Home Depot and started buying, I'd be out of money before I had everything I needed.
The plastic I ordered from Growers' Supply is here. All I need to get now are the 16 foot cattle panels and some 12 foot lumber. For that I am relying on help from a friend with a 12 foot trailer, so I'm working on his timeline for now. I'd just borrow the truck and trailer, but I have no confidence in my ability to back them up. The person helping me with the construction is on standby until I get the last of it together. (In reality, he's in charge of construction and I'll be there to do what I can to assist.) The seedlings in the basement are holding their collective breath until they can be moved out of the currently cramped quarters.
Thanks again to everyone who made this possible in so many ways. I will be getting out the promised perks soon.
