Looking good bro, the majority of the stuff in the greenhouse is doing well here, some of it feels those couple really cold nights. It hurt the snow peas which we were really enjoying, right off the vine even. Cabbage, broccoli, carrots, swiss chard, spinach are all well. Won't be long before we start the spring /summer seeds. We're still eating on last years maters and that makes me HAPPY.
I just put some cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower seeds in the starter trays today. I've got a big project for one of my greenhouses this spring. I'm going to extend the height 4 or 5 feet. I'm getting my materials gathered up.
Noticed your wicking beds. Got a question, Are you using the drains that come already in the stock tanks and adding PVC turned up to get the correct water level? Built a few but mine didn't already have drains but can get them that way.
Yes I used the drain that was in it. I'm using 6" drain pipe in the bottom so I had to extend the height of the drain to 5". I just used materials I had laying around . I had these tanks already when I was using them for baby chick brooders . I have had limited success with several potting mixes. Promix is my favorite for wicking ability and moisture consistency. I have my feed store order it for me. It's pricey at over $20 for 2 cf. I hate miracle grow bagged stuff.
The tall tanks worked good for carrots but shorter tanks would save money and I'd probably use 4" pipe in the bottom.

The ones I bought at the time did not have a drain installed. I had to drill and install one but was gonna purchase a couple more. That looks like a simpler solution. Thanks.
