Thanks, Richard.

D&T, I used quite a few brackets but additional diagonal bracing is a good idea, I think. I think the cables can help with that. We probably get over 35mph about once every couple of years. The heavy rains/snow/winds last month knocked our power out for 36 hours and that has never happened before in the past 50 years to the best of my memory.

There is no floor yet. I will probably just use gravel. I am tentatively planning on burying a circulating hot water line to heat the greenhouse but probably won't do that until next fall or so.

D&T, I see many photos of greenhouses in the Growers Supply catalog in snow conditions. The company is from Indiana. If you have the will, there is a way!
