Be careful with those glass greenhouses.  If it gets sunny out they'll cook in a few minutes.  I'd just put them on at night if you're worried about cold temps....

SKIP books, get 'em while they're hot!!! Skills to Inherit Property

I As of late, I've been keen on any nest project that entails a good few hours of wood working. Last week I gave the kitchen waste bin some love. This week, I made a super sturdy tie-off for the pulley cord of a ceiling - mounted drying rack.

Right you are, I noticed a burnt spot on the cotyledon of a borage sprout located on an east-facing slope. I already removed the glass from that spot.

Summer was very nice, and the events were a blast!

Daily routine is split time between gardening and all the other things.

Every year, Wheaton Labs hosts an intensive Permaculture Design Course. I opted to attend the two weeks taught by Allan Booker, which turned out to be the best class of my life as a student. One day during a break from classroom time, we toured the gardens at basecamp and observed Paul waving his arms while talking loudly.

I made the box shelf too big, but luckily, modifying it was easy.
