We have had a greenhouse for about 10 years but let it go for last couple yr and now trying to set it back up.In it was container and hydroponics.
 
A greenhouse is the way to go if you want to grow nicely. They can also be made very affordably.

I wish I had one so instead I use the walk -in closet and spare bathroom to grow in during the winter.
 
That's nice. You got some tips?

Not sure what do you want to know? We learned a lot from MHPGardner. We did pretty good only problem was heat and we're in N.Florida,lol.
Of course I did it my way on some things like his white buckets.I like the Loews blue buckets because any light makes the water green with algae.

I don't have a greenhouse so I don't know much about it but am interested. I live in Zone 5 so I can't grow things outside all year and have thought many times about adding a greenhouse.

I guess I misunderstood your initial post. Apparently you were simply making an announcement. Therefore, I'll amend my response to: GOOD FOR YOU. GOOD LUCK.

The new LEDs are better than the old fluorescent tubes I used for many years and cost less..

We are having a time with it now, Monday our 13 yr old dog died we haven't stopped crying from that 5 minutes ago hubby called me out to chicken pen and two of our favorite hens are dead,something got inside pen. A well secured pen ,we thought. Only had 6 hens for eggs,now 4. He is burring them now. And I'm suppose to clean out greenhouse and start slowly setting it up.

I had 75 birds until a respiratory infection wiped them out.

Compost, look at this broccolli we grew 4 yr ago just using compost for fertilizer. We had lots to put up . I grew it in covered raised bed using using karosene lamps for heat. Grew lots of cabbage in containers in greenhouse too.
