No trouble at all to ask. Steve and I currently have about the same amount of greenhouse space. I might have slightly more than him in area, but I think his is roomier. I do all of the micropropagation work and Steve grows the plants and does a lot of other odds and ends type of work like graphics, listing products, answering emails, etc.

I have the ability to expand my growing space if I need to, which I'll likely have to do this summer once I start deflasking more plants. I (with the help of my father) just finished insulating and drywalling the garage in our house. To my wife's dismay, I plan to put up a couple more grow racks in the garage and during the spring, summer and fall, I can grow plants outside as well on the deck and patio. Unfortunately Steve can't expand his growing set up with the ease that I can because growing outside where he lives isn't really an option. He's out of greenhouse room and can't set up another small greenhouse because the strong winds where he lives would tear it down in less than a year. I'm trying to convince him to relocate somewhere here in southern Oregon or northern California so that he can expand and be much closer :)
