Hi Everyone,
I came across this forum while searching for some of my favorite succulent species, Aloes!
You could call me a hobbyist and nowhere close to a professional grower of cactus and succulents. I grow a majority of my plants is a small shade-house behind the house. Due to our very warm (hot) summers most of my young potted plants can quickly overheat and stunt their growth for an entire season - hence the shade house.
I'm looking forward to learn as much as possible from all the experience growers on this forum. Glad to be here!
Here is a panorama of the inside of the shade-house

Hi CaliJef, welcome to the forum. I like the look of the shade house, unfortunately we have the opposite problem here...not enough sun due to Derbyshire weather and a neighbour's huge willow tree.
Cheers
