  • Date: Wed, 19 Mar 2003 09:06:48 -0500

I'm in the process of building a half dozen long greenhouse tables. I'm wondering what you are using as a top for yours. I know that the greenhouse suppy companies sell a special mesh for table tops and I also know, from experience, that that green welded fencing from Lowes does NOT work well. What I'm hoping is that someone knows of relative inexpensive fencing or panels that will hold up and will not sag under the weight of wet flats.

Thanks

Anyone got a good blend recipe for beneficial plantings that might save me the postage from California?

I have been using trellising from either lowes or the home despot. I have also spent many hours going through greenhouse catalogs looking for table tops and haven't found anything better. But how about hog panels?

I hope you are not trying to get any farming supplies into the country right now. I ordered greenhouse fans 3 weeks ago and the motors have been sitting at the Mexican border and won't be released until the end of the month, at best. I've been on the phone this morning calling around looking for replacements and this seems to be the rule rather than the exception.

I would imagine that this is only going to get worse.
