Wiring, Insulation and Drywall Next

Door framed and ceiling joists going in.

It’s a large darkroom. Bigger than my previous darkrooms. It will be my last (I think) so I went big!

We’ve had very good weather here. Highs in the 60s (15-20C) and mostly sunny. Very nice working weather. We’re getting ready to do some electrical work today and finish the ceiling joists in the darkroom. Then we’ll finish insulating and then paint it. Only a week or two left, depending on how many days we take off to do other things. We still have to put our gate up (Ghost Controls) and close the greenhouse.

A few more goodies from the greenhouse before we close it down for the winter. Next year will be amazing. We learned a lot about what grows up here and how to do it.

I think we may start shutting the greenhouse down today. Not completely, but the tomato, squash, cauliflower all can be culled. We are going to compost the plant (remains) and soil for next year. We’re starting a large compost bin that we can add to and use from year to year. Next spring, we’ll build two raised beds for the greenhouse and have some floor space for potted plants. It really surprised me how well everything did this year considering we had a late start and all. We learned a lot and even got to reap quite a lot of vegetables. I can’t even imagine what next year will bring.
