I've slowly but surely been making some progress on getting my semps a nice little home. I originally had a spot behind the deck of my home but it didn't work out because of the constant sun with no shade and drainage issues. I think the little fellas were getting cooked. Even though I've bought quite a few different ones and I know some of them may not make it because of the climate here, I'm bound and determined to make all of them live!
It wouldn't be possible without some of the members in the group for selling me a few of theirs otherwise I would only have one kind, haha! Thanks
@valleylynn,
@springcolor, and
@goldfinch4! I really do appreciate it...
I tried to be resourceful and came up with some different trays that were intended to be used for a worm garden that I never got around to using. There were 8 trays total and it gave me a couple of spare ones to use if I have to move any in the future. In the future, I want to clean up the look around the trays and level them out in the area I have them in but I also want to make sure it's going to work in this area before I start redoing the area to make it look more appealing.
These are a few pics of the trays I'm currently using.
This is one that has a little bit of everything and it sits on my back porch.
I also decided to build a shelf for my front porch so I don't have so many containers just sitting on the ground. I found some old lumber that was basically sitting there doing nothing, so I decided to put it to use and it's currently a work in progress. Once I get it finished, I'll post updated pictures.
Before sanding and staining:
Progress
