This is what my Greenhouse looks like right now. As soon as I get everything out of it and planted I will have to spend some time in cleaning it up.
I dare you to take a picture of yours and post it for us.
I can remember when mine was so new and CLEAN.
No I double dare you!!!!!!!!

A mess or what????? What does yours look like???
Your greenhouse isn't messy, it's well-loved!! :-)
Mine is new...give it time to get messy. Photo is here:

Tiffanya, I noticed you have the same Black & Decker heater that I have. It worked great this past winter. I have seen your GH and it is super. You will really enjoy it this winter. Going out and seeing your summer flowers still blooming with snow on the ground. It is such a morale booster. Let me tell you.
Perennialgirl I am just getting it unloaded for the summer. Can't wait to have everything outside in the fresh air and sharing all my babies with the wild life. Your picture does remind me of mine, about a month ago.
I just need some organization.

Oh yes, that Black & Decker heater is great! Oh, I sure am hoping for that morale booster. I seriously get the winter blues with all the gray-wet weather here in the NW.
Here's mine filling up in April. I'll have to get a few new shots to show you the
chaos now. It was filled to the brim & circulation so poor I had to start moving
plants outside. Now I've got a bazillion pots to wash and stack for next year
plus still have baskets & containers to plant. Just SOoo much to do this time
of year.
My greenhouse typically stays pretty messy until late fall when I want to spent
lots of time in there as the days get shorter & colder & I need the smell of
dirt & green. Its too hot to bother with in the summer.

Tam it sure doesn't look messy to me! Show us a picture of the outside to, please and more of the inside.

I took pictures today and will download and post. Hopefully tomorrow.
(Actually, its not that bad IN the greenhouse. But I've got pots of plants
in various places OUTSIDE the greenhouse. Places they shouldn't be,
either waiting for me to plant the plants or to wash the pot. I recycle.)

My greenhouse is empty.. I don't think my one empty flat and a couple pots will merit a picture.. just wait til next year!!!!!
ok guys...looking at your greenhouses....they are great....but i have a question....why are plants in your greenhouse??...is it still too cold in your area?? are these cuttings??(in some instances)...if i get a greenhouse can i put all my outdoor plants in it all winter.....only to pull them out next spring and have instant stock?? i am just wondering why we have greenhouses unless it is for plant preservation and plant incubation??
Oh My god.....here I thought I was the only one who had a messy greenhouse.....All my stuff is outside now....but I really need to get organized inside....I am ashamed to say, I keep putting it off cause its always so darn hot in there....even though the exhaust fan is going all the time.
I will post 4 or 5 pictures of my pig pen.....

in another week when the last frost date, June 10, passes, my greenhouse will be empty of plants. All the garden tools, the weed whacker, tiller, and buckets of soil, sand, fertilizers will still be there along with plant foods for fruit trees, vegetables, root crops and bulbs as well as all kinds of planters large and small, seed files and files of instructions, hints, notes, calendars and insect control tools/supplies.
Will I clean it out?
Probably not till early September when it's time to reorganize and get ready for the winter dwellers to come back in from the garden and the decks.
I use my greenhouse to winter over tender perennials and herbs, to supply us with lettuce, parsley, onions, dandelion and healthful herbs during winter and early spring, and to start seeds for the garden like rutabagas, tomatoes and cucumbers whose growing season is longer than ours. Our first frost date is September 27. I'll get to it then!
Right now I can still get in and water the seedlings and find the tools: that's what counts!
I like everyone's mess! It means that you were all productive!! Yu'all just make me jealous having a real greenhouse....lol!!
fiorenza, where are the pictures of your greenhouse??? Come on now....show us, please!
