Damn Thank You Zap! That actually answered a couple questions I had about flowering poppies. Sadly I got started late this year and have Clay for soil :facepalm:


I'm not expecting enough to test 2 or 3 times but I'm Praying for the best this year if the Earth Gods will it :jointsmile:

They don't need that good of soil and have shallow roots. Next year break that shit up, throw in a bag or two of potting soil and some extra perlite for a decent top coat and you'll be fine. But yeah, the trick is starting early. In some climates that means sowing in fall, for me it's late winter. I usually start in February and just sow a few here and there through march until I have the coverage I want. If you want some seeds next fall hit me up.

How long do the seeds take to germinate?  I had some pods that I broke up and spread around a couple of areas maybe 2 weeks ago.  It's got weeds and such but I did put down a bunch of seeds.  They don't appear to be the Oriental type so I hold hope they may be the better type.  This is a new place for me.

I'm building a pond/greenhouse, pretty stoked.  Got much of it dug, pond kit is in, got single wide mobile home trusses, gonna go with the polycarbonate double wall 8 mm.  Using 2 ft tall sections of painted hardipanel to hold the dirt in then going up from there.  Pond to be 7x1l ish.  I want to have a deep end.  Going to incorporate the lining into the waterfall so that area may be widening out early then dropping again into the deep pool.  Gonna also use the polycarbonate for the other walls and have an entrance with a locking door so it's gonna be enclosed and very cool.  I am thinking about raising Mozambique tilapia.

Hi everyone,
I might be getting my first little greenhouse soon. A 2x2x2m one that looks pretty much exactly like the one in the OP.

I was wondering though, if you're building this type of greenhouse on concrete ground, do you need to secure it with bolts into the concrete or is its own weight enough to prevent it from being blown by the wind?

I'd not risk one unsecured.

The methods used will depend on the base/plinth of your specific greenhouse, if one is provided, and what work will be needed to prepare the ground.

A common simple way is concrete/postcrete plugs holding the corner anchors of the base.
Once that is in level and square (remember to measure diagonals!) then the greenhouse frame is constructed up from it.

To Answer Mean Green's Question.

I Leveled the floor. (super important to have a "plumb"-level floor.). otherwise when you put in the furniture and racks tables etc. . the floor might be uneven

Second. .I built a Frame for the base out of some 4"x4" pressure treated fence stud. and put in some metal joiners in the corners, and then I assembled the greenhouse around the base-frame. In the last few years the greenhouse has withstood some rather heavy windstorms. I have had a couple panels come off the roof, and have had to to put them back on. I do suggest, that if you purchase from Harbor freight, Buy extra clips. for the frame. You will need them

Time for an update.

I had some time to take a few photos for everyone to enjoy. We had a very cold hard winter this last 2016-2017. Some of my plants died off, but others survived the cold. Here are some of my plants coming out of dormancy, and flowering

The first one is one of my Trichocereus bridgesii.


The second is my Mamilopsis senelis. This is its second year blooming for me. It actually started blooming on Easter and has been blooming into May.


The: third, fourth, fifth, and sixth photos are of my Silene capensis  that I have grown from seed. The first flower opened on the night of the first quarter moon in may 2017. The 3rd photo I took, and "Mr.K." took the 4th,5th,and 6th. I think Mr.K's photos turned out better than mine. Lol.








The last 2 images are of my greenhouse post winter die-off. My Pachanois are growing pretty tall now which is making me smile, but still now pachanoi flowers yet. 





hope you all enjoy
Miss K'

Well, My gardenia bloomed today. I got a couple photos of it, for you to enjoy.


and a closeup of the flower


I thought I would also include a photo of an Opuntia species, that I got from a friend. She has said, that her mother (collected) the original parent plant for the variety, from some military base in Texas where she was stationed (YEARS ago), like more than 40 years ago. LOL.  I have lovingly decided to name this variety in my collection, "Juliet".

Thanks for the kind words, Zed. Yeah. this is the second year in a row, that my Mam-Senilis has bloomed. I am getting better at giving my plants a winter rest, and not over watering during dormancy. I had a big die off, this last winter. We had one of the wettest winters in about a century. Some of my more tropical plants died, but the more hardy ones like my lophs and most of my Gymnocalyciums survived. Sadly, the purple phase (Gymnocalycium mihanovichii var. friedrichii) that I had for over 20 years passed away, but not before she gave me one last seed pod. her children are starting life on my windowsill for another generation.

Regarding your questions P-Zap', It is a 10'x12' greenhouse from Harbor freight tools. It came in boxes and pieces, and my father helped me build it. It is NOT heated, so plants that are not cold tolerant have to be brought inside. On hot days 80-90f, it can get like 120f inside the greenhouse. LOL. So, I often open the door during the afternoon, on nice days.

I can say a few things about this type of pre-fab greenhouse: 1.) Make sure your foundation is LEVEL, If you pour a concrete slab. or do a flat sand floor make sure you get a level make sure your foundation is plumb-level, or else when you put in your floor stones, or racks, your racks will not sit square on the floor. 2.) Get extra clips. You can buy extra clips to hold in the polycarbonate panels. I suggest getting an extra bag of them, because you can have a wind storm that will blow out a panel and you will need them to put the panel back on. 3.) Lastly, regarding the foundation, make sure that you have some sort of secure foundation especially if you live in an area that gets winds over 50mph. my foundation is a square made of pressure treated fence post, and the aluminum/sheet steel base is secured to the foundation square.

And, thank you very much Dirty Tom. :smile:

Howdy all. I wanted to pop in a photo of a very special plant with a story.


These little plants are an Allium species. I am not exactly sure what kind of wild Onion they are. However, when they Bloom I might have a better idea as to the species. I have several options as to what it might be based on the location they were collected. My husband and I do some responsible collecting of wild plants. Usually we only collect seeds, but last summer we were spending some time on the Wilson river In Western Oregon, when I stepped on something that gave off a very intense fragrance of ONION. I looked down to find a large colony of wild onions. I only took a few bulbs because I did not want to disturb the natural environment too much.

Its possible that they could be: Allium bisceptrum, Allium parvum, Allium siskiyouense,or Allium unifolium.

I suppose the color of the flowers will help, when it blooms. Also I can say that they are not "ramps" because there is no red on the bulblets. I'll come back later then the flower bundles open. With a photo or two. I would appreciate any help keying this species as right now I am just going to call it Allium Sp. (wilson river).

I'm not 100% on it but I know we have them down here so bad they're IMPOSSIBLE to get rid of :shakefist: and they make your hands (if you get the tiniest dab of the juice on you) smell overwhelmingly STRONG for hours :facepalm:


I'll try to find the genus and species :wink:

Hello people.

I thought I would post this here in my thread, because Kanna is not really a cactus..LOL. This is the first time I have been able to get the plant to bloom. I thought you all might want to see what the flowers and growth habit are like. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy.

Very nice Sceletium Miss K. :thumbup:
Mine is flowering for the 1st time right now too, such a blessing. There's been a bit of talk about Kanna in this thread lately in case you missed it.
Hope you'll get a great season and that we get to see many nice pics of the greenhouse
