Great!!!!

I love it. Love the stamped concrete in the auction photo too!

Q: Is that salt hay in the first photo, or just plain straw to reseed lawn or cover a storm drain?
If salt hay, could you explain. Thank you, Clark

Nice job Candace, very clean looking. What kind of floor are you going to have?

Is that salt hay in the first photo, or just plain straw

It's plain old straw that we get from friends with a ranch. We cover our garden beds with it to try to prevent weeds.

What kind of floor are you going to have?

I'm eventually going to put in pavers of some kind. I've got gravel in my other one and it's a nightmare. Right now it's just decomosed granite that was there previously. This area used to be where my kids swing set was situated. They grew up and I took the space over:>

Looks wonderful, Candace!

I am jealous! Can't wait to see how full you can get it!

 

[Candace]

I've had some very busy last few months with my SIL. niece and nephew moving within 4 miles of me. They moved from Hawaii from a house I picked out for them..sight unseen! Talk about trust:> That's why I've not posted much recently. Anyhoo, my electrician friend had some serious personal issues over the last several months so I needed to wait patiently until he could get to the electrical. We used it as a large chicken coop for a couple of months;> 2 long days of work and most of the electrical is in. The cost of parts ONLY was close to $700. He's finishing it up next Sat. Woohoo!

 

[Candace]

I should add, the cost doesn't include the light fixture,fan equipment, or labor.

Looks wonderful! How big's this monster gonna be?

 

[Candace]

It's a small amount larger than my current. 18' something x 14' something.

Looks perfect for a DEA raid!

Very clean and neat looking Candace!

Looks perfect for a DEA raid!

Actually, I'd be more worried if I grew inside with tons of lights - energy use like that truly is monitored more than small greenhouses.

 

[Candace]

So Candace said, "Let there be LIGHT"! And after a looooong wait, 4 full days put in by the electrician, and a lot of money, there was light.

 

[eOrchids]

Oooooooooohhhhhhhhh!!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

[John M]
