My little mostly insulated shed has a steadier temperature which is not super surprising but I think the angle of the sun right now has helped because it wasn't this steady a month ago and it's cooler now. Looks like I'm safe to start cool weather seeds in there and looking at Johnny's fall planting spreadsheet, that's pretty much anything I plan to grow.

Green is shed - blue is outside in the shade close to the shed.

So tempting but I only have 3 of 5 beds and it will be that way until I finish the tunnel, plus all three are planted. Such a cute toy though.

Onward to other tabs to see what I can knock off the To Get list. I'll be hitting Menard's Sunday after work for chain link top rail and who knows what else. Walmart for a cheap prepaid cell phone or two.

To Get
Cell Phone
Insect Netting
76" support hoops for the netting
Greenhouse Film
IBC Totes (x4)
Cattle Panels
Chain Link Fence Top Rail
Gable Vents
Linear actuators
12 foot step ladder (non on craigslist right now)
Bunch of little drip irrigation items
Bunch of those Deutch connectors (need to tally up how many)
Bunch of relays (need to tally up how many)
Vintage Fridge Gasket
DIN rail
Secondary ethernet switch (one for shed - one for tunnel)
Decent solar batteries
Another Mini PC or three (thinking about replacing our laptops with them too)
Materials for lean to shed on NW end of tunnel
Small tiller

And probably a whole lot more. Gonna be like Christmas every day here for me soon with daily packages coming in. I see Lowes has a little Honda tiller but that's about like the seeder. Don't need it quite yet.

Just found out they sell china knockoffs of the $400 roll up sides motors on amazon for $100 ea. I might go that way instead of my bifold hangar door style sides for now. I can install roll ups in a day and they do the job.

Was thinking about a new 5,000 btu AC for my son and put his old one in the shed but I might want to just go the final route of a mini-split AC system with heat pump for the house.
