    Nice job! maybe use expanding foam, sand or concrete to level out your cinderblock base. Did you attach/secure the metal base to the 2x10 border? I've also seen reinforcing the doors/end-walls with 2x4s. Good luck growing and Keep it up!

      @fojmuav I did end up using the spray foam to fill in the gaps. Yes, we did screw in the base to the wooden border and secured the cover to the base as well. 😊

    Deleted my comment because you actually addressed my question at the end. Hopefully the tposts and fencing works for you. I'd go ahead and put that up before planting, honestly. Also having the drip will help you a great deal if you install it beforehand, because then you will know where you need to plant things if you're using a drip line. You can place the plant or seeds near the emitters. You guys really put in a lot of work to really make this substantial. Great job!

      @ABlueDahlia Thank you for your comment. We actually ended up installing 4 / 4 posts. Instead of tpost to make it even more secure. I will have a follow-up video in the next few days. My plants are desperate to be planted. Otherwise, I would wait for the drip, but some of them are getting far too large. LOL.

    Use some "Great Stuff" foam spray in those gaps. It'll close em up and keep out the critters.
    It'll also help reduce thermal loss in the winter. (Just make sure you do it all at once, they're basically one time use cans.)
    Setup looks fantastic! 😎

      @syracusechris Here is the link to the greenhouse we bought.
      Outsunny 26'L x 10'W x 6.8' H Large Steeple Walk-In Greenhouse Outdoor Garden Plant Seed Tunnel Grow Tent Premium Steel Frame White

      Here is the wire fencing
      Fencer Wire 16 Gauge Galvanized Welded Wire Fence, 4" x 4" Big Mesh Opening for Vegetables, Garden Fruits & Animals Enclosure (5 ft. x 100 ft.) a.co/d/02ho5gtp
      The wood that we used to shape the garden beds was from a local mill and cost about $50. The wooden framethe greenhouse itself is attached to came from Home Depot, and that was a bit more pricey. They were about $30 a board, and we had to buy 6 of them, so about $180. We had the concrete blocks from a passed project, so there was no cost to them.
      I'm gonna say close to $700.
      There will be extra costs for the trellises and the drip irrigation. I didn't add those costs in.
