Hello All Wes:( Here, A little bit about myself. I was a plumber for 20 some odd years then went into Tech. Got a associate degree in electronics and started working on computers and the like. Learning all I could on my own in computers and the like after schooling was over. Worked in plumbing until I landed a tech job with a homeless agency. Any way I am starting from scratch creating a homemade system with all the info and guidance I can find and learn from. Setting up a hoop greenhouse 11 feet wide and 20 ft long. I have a 300 gal fish tank”(from ace hardware 199.00 my cost,)” for two 4 by 8 grow beds free so far. That is an approximate measurement of the beds. I am using two fiberglass truck camper tops as the grow beds, they have been modified to work as close to the setup of the wonderful Murray Hallam's videos as I can get. I have pics and will be posting them soon. My hobbies have been raising tropical fish, gardening and bird watching. I am into natural foods and vitamins. I have some native American going on in my family on my mother’s side so nature has always been close to me even as a kid.:p

l am doing all this in my backyard so space is at a premium.:carrot:

Welcome Wes
I have to admit I look at everything to use for bed but had never thought of P/U toppers . Looks like you have a good start going from your list .:p So send Pic's and ask what you can't figure out .
Have A Kind Day
Mike
