Spending $10 for less than a pound of catfish on Thursday increased my appetite for buying my outdoor fish.
I knew the Fish Wagon [aka Arkansas PondStockers] was going to be at the Manassas Southern States Coop Friday. So I went for it. I picked up 25 hybrid bluegills, 50 redear, and a pound of minnows - all for less than $60. I plan to pick up a handful of catfish in a month or two, when Ive got the 300 gallon tank in place.
I know Im doing it all backwards. But having the fish in the tank, crying out for the greenhouse to be built, has made clearing a couple of trees an emergency. Mere planning for a greenhouse would have allowed the hard tree-clearing part to get delayed for weeks, months, years.
Trees are down now, with a small bit of bad news. Apparently my greenhouse cant be taller than the brick wall at the end of my property. Which would make the greenhouse, I dont know, like 48" tall. The lady purveying the unhappy news did make some helpful suggestions that might work, though. And my greenhouse design can be scaled to whatever height is allowed.
