I hate my greenhouse.
 
When it needs heat, the heaters stop working. Sometimes in tandum.
When the electricty goes off grid, the generator fails to start. When
it needs water the well pump dies. When it needs vents the controller
box dies. It never tells me something is about to break....vents just
stop opening, alarms go off and orchids start to cook.

Well at least the alarm works. OH DEAR GOD NO! I didn't say that out
loud did I?...

And isn't this the GH that we all watched go up just a couple of years ago?
The one on which you used a wench? Seriously, all that stuff is pretty new,
isn't it?

But you get so much enjoyment out of it when it works... Years of
greenhouse bliss separated by brief days of terror, seems like a good trade.

I agree. Your greenhouse sucks. Just pack it up and send it all to me.......
