10 X 12 HFGH now on their site
Comments (78)Hi everybody. I originally posted this message to mudhouse's blog, not knowing how to post it here. But, now I do! So, if anyone gets this message twice, lo siento mucho. Anyway, here it is: I have a question about possible corrosion on my new, unassembled HFGH 10x12. The gravel has arrived, the foundation timbers are in place, and I'm ready to build the greenhouse. But, before I begin, I wonder if someone can enlighten me on potential electrical contact corrosion where (mudhouse's) steel "L" brackets connect the EMT to the frame, where the hold-downs meet the steel base, and where the studs also meet the base. Should I somehow insulate these contact points, perhaps with rubber? Is there actually a problem at these spots? Thanks so much. masscactus - ready to build...See More10x 12 HFGH
Comments (44)Ray, Your pictures are great! My DH and I saw the 10 x 12 GH for sale in the HF magazine for the first time today, so I've been reading this thread and others with much enthusiasm. How do you feel about your HFGH now? I was feeling discouraged after reading other posts, but after seeing your detailed pictures and instructions feel that we can tackle this and be quite satisfied.

Comments (13)It's a little hard to see here, but I used 1/2 to 3/4 crushed rock. I would have LOVED to pour a slab with a big fat drain in the middle but the crushed rock only cost about $50 for 3 yards. It's crushed river rock, so there is a lot of round edges. If you get crushed quarry rock it is much better. NO FINES. OLD picture from January I think. I'm eating the peas now :) It stays put very well while walking and moving things around. big enough drainage to hose soil spills down the cracks.

Comments (18)Hi all. I'm a newbie here having just discovered this forum last week. (About one month after I had purchased and put together a 10x12 HFGH). I don't worry too much about stability since I mounted the GH on treated 4x4's each of which have two 36" rebars going through them and into the ground; however, we had a sudden storm yesterday with 40 to 50 mph gusts which successfully resulted in ten panels seperating themselves from the GH walls and ceiling. I managed to retrieve them all, (I think) but now must engineer a solution which will prevent the panels from flying off in the first place. Any suggestions? Are sheet metal screws adequate for winds of from 40 to 50 mph? Tape? A different kind of clip? I would really appreciate some help here. Thanks, halinva...See More4greenhouse
