A few months ago I was on and someone said they'd bought a new greenhouse from Harbor Freight....I got on their website and found one I could live with. Well today I finally got the first bed in place and planted 2 kinds of lettuce, bok choi, and endive and transplanted some celery from the garden that hadn't died quite yet. And here's a few photo of my endevors.

A lot of work....but maybe I'll get a few veggies out of it...maybe not...as I live in central Penna. and our weather is iffy at best.
I still have the other side to do but this is a great first attempt. Added it to the back of our garage with the intentions of making the window into a door should we need to heat this. Plus the garage gives it a good wind break for the winter.
BTW....I'm a newbie on this forum.

hallchinalady,
Welcome to the forum. It would be nice, IMO, if "Roger Almighty" would add a Greenhouse Forum.
Very nice setup, a lot like mine. You will have earlier greens and later too. Should be able to start, hundreds of vegetable starts, for the garden also.
