   This is a great greenhouse for only 669$. The foundation is lapped 2x6x8 ground contact lumber from Lowes, leveled on pavers, and then staked to the ground with AAGUT Ground Rebar Stakes 24 inch (10 pcs). We only needed twelve boards and only had to make four cuts. The wind blew this greenhouse over when we were putting it together, but nothing was seriously damaged. We bought Aluminum Foil Tape but the panels would not fit. So we took the tape off to slide the panels in. This is not the smaller clip in panel version. We bolted the frame to their aluminum foundation part for greater stability, it was only clipped together. Then we bracketed their aluminum foundation to the lumber with Corner Brackets 1.57×1.57x2IN(20 pack). The turnbuckler kit (Size: 100FT Cable & M6 Turnbuckles Kit | Color: 3/16″ Cable) is a must. We had the wind blow out a roof panel before we were able to put it on, but it has held since then. This greenhouse needs extra bracing and support poles. We bought two 1″ 10-ft metallic emt conduit poles and one 3/4″ from Lowes. The 2 thicker poles support the roof attached with barbed fittings and zip ties. The other pole supports the flimsy back wall. We are in Colorado Springs and have very strong winds. I asked the seller for extra braces (part number 22) and they sent me two extra packs, 36 in all for free! We put Chapin Heavy Duty Landscape Fabric under the river rock. The 2 raised garden beds are (Enyu&You 8x2x2FT Galvanized Raised Garden Beds) 90$ each. I ran an extension cord under the back of the greenhouse and a 3 ft Stainless Steel Garden Hose under the front. The greenhouse has very good ventilation with a 50$ Simple Deluxe 20 Inch fan. A mister system is not necessary. Hauling the 6 loads of gravel and 4 loads of compost/manure in a mini van was the hardest part of this build. I followed the video to build this greenhouse. It is much better than the directions. Never done any of this before, all the plants are from seed started in our basement. The first photo is from 6/3/2024 all the other photos are from 7/3/2024. Overall I am very happy with this greenhouse. I have been sleeping in it. It has withstood some strong winds and taping the corners has made this greenhouse less leaky. Most of what is needed for this build can be bought on completegrowkit.com. A greenhouse is a lot of work but well worth it.

   The greenhouse is a lovely addition to any garden area. Make sure your crosswinds are 45mph or less.

   As for putting it together, it took a few days and the directions are clear if you pay close attention to the information boxes on each page.

   Customer service is available for any and all questions and response time is very quick.

   We did build a deck base and drill holes in the bottom of the unit to double secure the structure to the deck.
   Happy building!!
