Building the Yardistry Greenhouse from Costco 🌱 Foundation and Framing the Walls

I'm so excited to finally be building the greenhouse that I bought from Costco by Yardistry! We spent half a day working on leveling out the ground and building the foundation base on which the greenhouse would sit. Day 2 was a full day spent assembling the 4 walls and building them up on the base.

I highly recommend reading the instructions thoroughly and paying attention to the details in the pictures the instruction booklet provides. This was so helpful.

We used 4x6 boards for the base and attached them with L brackets. See the supplies list below for more details.

Thank you for explaining this step by step. Especially the rebar and measurements (with reduction). You’re a life saver for someone like me who knows nothing about this stuff. Thank you 💙

Getting ready to order this exact greenhouse. The foundation is a real sticking point for me, thank you for walking us through it so clearly!

Great video. I just bought mine and had it delivered and am in the planning phase consuming a bunch of videos like this. This is very helpful, thank you for putting it together!

Hey there! Not sure how I missed this! Last night, we hit the sheets for sleep, they fed me this video. We were watching and thought wow, great job, and then heard our name! We sat up straight so excited lol thank you for the mention and wow great job!!

Nice video. I just put mine together..instead of doing a whole base I just used six large pavers, one on each order and one the middle of each long beam to support the structure. Just made sure the pavers were level corner to corner and across. Seems to support it nicely and only took an hour to install the base.

Great video! I am waiting for the weather to get better and I will hopefully be recording a similar video. Happy gardening!

Thank you for sharing. We just purchased a Yardistry Greenhouse (6.7 X 7.8). Would liked to have seen you prepare and install the Side Panels, i.e.; removing the film and adding the top and bottom tapes. Also, note to assembly: first confirm location of predrilled holes to assure correct placement of wood pieces. The (1119) Front base is case in point.

Great Video. I’m ready to start my wife’s this morning. I own a paver / hardscapes business so I am laying a Unilock Richcliff paver floor first then building off of that 🫡

Great job and video thanks for sharing

3:46 so I see that is in the shade. How has this worked out over the past year? I'm just curious, because there is a bit of shade in the spot where I'm thinking of putting the greenhouse right now (End of September), but of course, the leaves will be gone in a couple months or less. The shade will move in a couple hours, but still - I just thought I'd ask.

Can you list your materials purchased for the base? Specifically the length of the wood

[jgmav]

We bought one plan on assembly in the next month

Thank you for documenting this! This was very helpful as I recently started assembling our Yardistry Greenhouse.
One question I have that I didn't see in your video: Did you secure/attach the greenhouse baseboards to your 4x6 base; and if so, how? Thank you.

Just curious if you could tell me the exact lengths you cut the bottom 4×6s ? We are building ours this weekend going to do ours the same way you did

[aircommuter]

I ordered one to build by myself. Looks easy.

How well does this hold up in wind. We get some pretty strong winds in the midwest

[alittleofsliceem]

Do you have to build a wooden base? Or can you just to patio stones?
