Yeah, I expected it to blow over in the open, but not all up against the BACK of my house like it was. I was astounded. But fear not - J is coming to the rescue with some cinderblocks. That'll do it. :) Hey Jessica – likewise! Yeah, I expected it to blow over in the open, but not all up against the BACK of my house like it was. I was astounded.

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I seen that little greenhouse at home depot and considered getting it. I can def understand why it would blow over : ( anchoring it somehow should help. Hey!

I'm having to replant herb seeds this week! We will prevail in the end, though ;-) I hadn't heard of the chit method before. I'll file it away for the future. Cheers!

Too funny. It is sad, but I'm undaunted. Second batch here we come! @ IG - nice one! I too have faith in the survivors - and we shall press on until I harvest a cucumber. All by myself. If you don't mind me asking, what are your wind mgmt techniques if any? @ Jennifer - yep, Calgary is not conducive to first year experiments that's for sure. :) The pepper will keep hope alive until the next batch of cukes is up and running. @ Maggie – Death by Greenhouse!

So so sorry for all of your hard work foiled by the weather! Hopefully, the survivors will prevail! I will admit that living on an island along the US coast, I always factor wind into things...dreaded Nor'Easters and Tropical Storms (don't mention the word hurricane). Wow, it is still cold at night where you are...don't think we've had a night in the 40s in two months or so...
