Dennis, My ground is wet too in the spring when all the snow melts. When we put our GH up we had a couple of loads of gravel put down (which consists of course sand and small stones)and built it up about 5-6" where the floor was going to be. After smoothing it out and making it even we made the floor frame out of pressure treated 4x4's.Then we put the landscape fabric on top of the gravel.We then put down white marble stone but any type of small stone can be used.I can water and spray my plants with the hose and the water goes down through the gravel and it is never wet in there.
