Gymgirl I started some tomato plants last fall in my greenhouse that I built so my wife who has a bad problem with skin cancer can get out side to work on her plants without being in full sun. It has alumamesh on it. It had open ends and the deer just decided that it was their own pessonal buffet and just went through and topped everything. Including my tomato plants . But they came back and were pretty sturdy. We totally wrapped the GH in plastic and built ends to keep out the wild life I will enclose a picture.Right now it kinda looks like a bag lady has just moved in its pretty raggy looking . But it serving a purpose. Then the freezing nights we had the little heater I had in it wasn't big enough and it got below freezing in there one night and killed a lot of our presios plants. I was hopeing to grow some winter tomatos in the GH but that didn't work out. I had a tomatilla plant that had little toms on it but it froze. It also killed all my citrus trees even the really big one I'm bummed out about that. You know what they say about Houston weather if you don't like it right now wait a minute it'll change.
Stephanie I have to wooden ladders that I grew some bird house guords on last year this year I want to grow the bigger rounder gourds on one and louffa on another. The ones I grew last year wern't big enough for me. So I'l try the bigger ones. Here is a picture of me standing in front of the GH I think you can see the ladders to the left..Ron
