    Apparently you liked it if you purchased the second one. Did you find it extended your growing season much? Did you have more/less pests and or disease issues? Do you plan to change the soil in the raised beds frequently? I have read that salt will build up in the soil in a high tunnel but not sure how many season it takes for that to happen. This was our first year with a big garden and not sure I am ready to go all in with a high tunnel but we had tomato blight and I would like to extend the season if possible. So many questions!

    Thanks for the response. The in ground/pot issue is one thing I am trying to work through.

    Thanks! I am hoping to retire the end of this year and think I will enjoy but want to gather all the Information I can before pulling the trigger.

    Did you design them yourself or buy a kit? What size? What was your experience with the heat in the summer? Texas and Oklahoma are close in weather conditions.

    I did some last month. Too early to tell the results yet. I purchased 1 gallon jars/lids from Azure Standard – not a fan of plastic especially with the lime solution tho I have seen some store in plastic 5 gallon buckets on YouTube. I have some eggs frozen and have freeze dried some as well. Will see which turns out best in the future. Have you done water glassing?
