Yea I made a nice lil DIY chiller but have to keep adding ice and my freezer stays full so no ice lol and not gonna buy ice every other day. the mini split will be perfect as I only need it to be cooled in the summer. Winter its perfect well a lil cold actually but it doesn't hurt the flowering plants only the veg. Shit goes to a crawl lol but everything should be perfect in winter as The veg tent should keep it warm for veg as I wont intake air when lights go off

man, I like that! I suspect between the two of us, we are gonna need pallets FOOOOR EEEEEEEVVVVVEEEEER (voice of smalls from sandlot)

My next pallet projects (After the chicken coop, and rabbit hutches, I think is going to be a nice shelf for my compost tea section.

nice ideas!
i reccomend a potting bench too . with a rubbermaid bin below to catch the dirt that falls betwwen the slats:) makes potting a jif and keeps all your soil stuff in one area . buddy has a nice one with just chicken wire for the fame around the half pallet bench . and it works a treat i am gonna "upgrade" my outdoor one.

Poly made it today so I will try to finish the greenhouse the next couple days. Got the mini split all installed and it will not come on so I am waiting on tec support to call back. I think it is just a fuse as I have power at all the connections but we will see.

My goal is to make as much of it as I can and have it to move when we get onto land we own. Long term, I want the majority of my meat and produce and dairy to be raised by me.

nice . raising stock is easy with the rigth set up . but always a "labor of love" my last round of meat birds got some "organic rations " barely broke even lol but its great heritage breed food. when i dont got my own meat my neigbors got a little "honor system" store for chucken, eggs and beef . keeps it local but not low cal <----ewwwww
