After a record-breaking harvest this summer my soil needed a little help.
Seedlings from my nursery transferred into their permanent garden. I made sure I left room for spinach, lettuce, and broccoli. |
I finally coated my frame with stain and waterproofing. Even though it will be completely covered all winter this will be one less task I will need to do in the spring. The waterproofing was sprayed on so as a precaution I covered the soil first.
Here is a look at how my Endless Summer Garden is progressing.
Ready for the harsh days ahead. In a future post, I will show what hardware I have added inside to keep things nice and warm once the temps drop into the single digits.
Follow the Frugal Gardener all year long. I will post updates to my Endless Summer on a regular basis. Please subscribe to my Youtube channel to be notified as to when new videos are added.

I put a remote temperature sensor in the wheeled greenhouse that I built, and can monitor the temperature from my house. Before any plants were put in this year the door was kept shut and on one sunny cold day it reached 110 F (43 C) inside, so I know that I can't leave the door shut unless absolutely sure that it will be an overcast day. It's better to leave them some ventilation than take a chance on burning the plants up. An automatic temperature activated door opener would be nice, if it worked.
