Does anyone know a vendor that has them in stock currently? Ready to pull the trigger on one after hearing you all rave about it

Doug Rucker should have some! North Georgia airless. And a few others. But those two can set you up.

Still loving mine. So nice not climbing up the back of the flatbed to pull the drop stick.

Chris, what about the nursery and 12 other businesses? How can we live vicariously if you donā€™t update us?! :grin:

Blaire got a starter greenhouse that I put up for her. Itā€™s 30x40

Weā€™re going to have a company install a greenhouse in the property in April for sales. Looking at a 30x70.

Hereā€™s an unfinished pic I had in my phone. Iā€™ll get some more for you @Sasquatch :joy:

Been a super busy year.

Blaire found a stray cat out in the cold. Sheā€™s looking for his owners but she secretly wants him to stay as the new greenhouse catā€¦ I mean itā€™s like 80 in there and 40 outside so I wouldnā€™t blame him lol

I donā€™t like cats. It took me years to like our naked one! But heā€™s pretty friendly.

You and I have very different definitions of the word ā€œstarterā€ā€¦

If they are planning on selling stuff out of it, it is small. Down the road they have a greenhouse that they sell stuff out of, well, it is actually 6 greenhouses and they are quite large. The manpower, materials, and time needed to recoup their investment on just garden vegetables is staggering. Iā€™m supposed to be washing thier greenhouses this spring. Iā€™m just doing soap and water, it is real glass and easily breakable. Plus I donā€™t want to damage any soil or plants with chems. Just getting the ā€œtopā€ dirt off the glass. Iā€™m calling it a rinsing.

He said the last time they cleaned it, it took several days with garden hoses.

Iā€™m just being silly. I know that the image I posted is the equivalent of calling this a ā€œstarter power washerā€:

Iā€™ve seen burner switches. And I think Honda makes a remote start kit. I could engineer one this winter. (Meant to add this reply from your quote earlier in this post )

Hey Chris! I have been thinking more about the remote control heat and after the job I had yesterday Iā€™m thinking it can come in pretty handy to have one remote with 4 buttons. Two for the Schertzbox and 2 more for on/off with the heat. It would be cool to turn heat off to downstream and keep the mix itā€™s full strength (no heat to degrade the sh on the way out) and then turn the heat back on to rinse better. Do you think you night have time to engineer one still this winter? I would be your first customer for it and Iā€™m sure not the last, especially if controls for both were on the same remoteā€¦

At the moment I am more swamped with orders than Iā€™ve ever been. Just got back ordered parts in to build a hundred units. Been a fight all year to get stuff in a timely manner. Once I get caught up I may see what I can do. But I donā€™t think a 4 button remote is a good idea. Say the system on the sh side goes down. Then when you have to send it back for repair you have an unwired burner. Just nice to keep it simple sometimes. Not to downplay your idea! On paper itā€™s fantastic!! But the reality is at some point the computer will fail 3-4 years down the road and leave you hanging.
