Wow, this is very interesting. My idea is to also have my aquaponic system. Just don't trust the fish market anymore.

I have another back vent working. So now I have two back vents with auto openers installed. We are now getting some tomatoes almost every day.

A little while back I covered up the clear glass with defused polycarb the tomato plants just took off after I did this. The plants seem to really like the defused light. They claim faster growth with the pollymatte I now believe them.
The grow bed on 3/2/2016 Now the grow bed on 4/18/2016 It is 80 outside today and the vents are working hard. The high temperature was 84 degrees today my house high was 81 I ran the AC. Greenhouse stayed around 78-80 pretty sweet.

It is the little things in life that make you happy. I see the door insulation in all my pictures. I always think I need to trim out that door. But there is always other stuff to do.
This morning I just took the time to do it. I had bought a door jamb pack but only needed one small piece a while back (for another project). So I still had the door jamb sides. I ripped this down in ½ and used it to trim the door. No out of pocket cost and the door is trimmed and we all do not have to look at it anymore all good. I bought a thousand tomato clips. I am tired of running out. I bought some flex tomato supports.

I put up I motion sensing solar powered light. It works really well and I order a second one that should cover the whole greenhouse. I will have a power panel but I still like the lighting to stand one its own.
I put in a seal over the hinge this will keep wind and rain from coming through the hinge. (You can see it at the top of this vent)

I put the seal up on all the vents over the hinge.
I had one screw left above the window that has the white cross hatch and it shattered the window. Since it is safety glass it stayed in place. It seems like it is just the outside glass. I clear tapped over the whole window. What a bummer. Two steps forward one step back.

I hate it when that happens. I have been known to throw drills and hammers through these mistakes. Believe me, it is the best kind of stress relief one could enjoy. Takes some of the agony away immediately.
