No real progress in the last few weeks... spring's tentative arrival has us focusing on getting the real garden in the ground, so I haven't been able to revisit the remaining details (poly inflation blower, benches, trim, porch...) on the greenhouse yet.
But: I'm glad we did this. An unexpected late freeze last week - over a month past our average last frost date - wiped out virtually all of the tomato plants we put in the ground about two weeks ago, thinking surely we were safe at that point. That's 50 some-odd plants (we can a lot and like to experiment with different heirloom varieties), plus a batch of
homebrew grafted tomatoes that I had quite a bit of work in.
Luckily, we had backups of just about everything safely tucked away in the greenhouse.
Chances are we wouldn't have hung on to our backup plants this long if we hadn't had a convenient place to stick 'em, so we'd have been hosed... relegated to repurchasing and planting boring (and expensive, compared to growing your own) garden store seedlings.
So, win #1!
