Where are the latest pictures???Don't forget about us!

Oh I wont, I had to get a few other things completed. I did get to Lowes yesterday and I picked up more 12 foot 2x4's and OSB.
Im going to try to get the last (east) wall up either today or tomorrow then I will be starting on the roof.

Well I got some work done on the greenhouse done to day.
East wall (last wall)

Ridge Beam

Now there will be a 4x4 post that will go from the ground to the beam to help bear the load of the roof and limit sagging.

It's getting real close.
I have about 20 - 2x4's and 5 - 4x8 OSB to get and external framing will done. Then I'll have trim to put up and then put 2 good coats of a heave primer and a coat of paint on it.

Internal bells and whistles might take some time.
I have to build the benches, run pluming and electric then I want to insulate the north roof and all the walls.
I should have everything up and running by fall.

I also want to build a heated propagation bench with a auto watering/misting system.
