Greenhouse Growing

To support my tomatoes now I only use the bolts shown above to anchor the upright supports and prevent them from sliding. A few pieces of framing and some sturdy dowels and twine support my tomatoes nicely. I leave them in place all year, however, it is a simple process to remove them if...

Thanks for the tips guys , will keep you posted with how I get onSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Up here in Scotland it depends on size of greenhouse, maybe the same in England? I know I built 1 which was 9ft x 14ft and a neighbour who taught planning at a university told me I should have got planning for that and it was in my own garden! I'd also find out the facts about whether you will...

i like the idea of both solid and soft , think i may do half and half that way i have best of both worlds. cheers for advice .

Guess you're right. It's too compacted down there for it to grow.

Or pop down to me,I carry it in my van....Free to G-C mates.

I'm definitely going to concentrate on this next Winter. I had good intentions last Winter, but events overtook me and I wound up just stuffing everything in then, when watering, some things that should be dry accidentally get watered. I did put my Coloured Labels on plants whilst still in the...

Clear uv poly would look better and let more light in. When i get a new battery for the lux meter i`ll do a test to see what the difference is.

Yes FC a good plan. You'll probably never need to access it but then there is sods law

My brother used creosote to kill ivy. He reckons it's the only thing that works totally.

I wonder if there is any reason why they are not more commonplace? No overlap joint = no gunk getting between the panes, and a tight fit against the frame all the way around - good for winter insulation / reduced draughts More expensive if a pane breaks, but IME (touch wood!) that's a rare...

So my ever present water problem is I hope now resolved, went up on my bank by the greenhouse a couple of weeks ago, and spotted a pool of water behind the greenhouse. I just did not think it was coming from the back, so I have siliconed all the back breeze block joints, I think it was just...

I got it start kit from Waterside garden center in Baston. x

Im not checking mine again til morn but i had to kick it open one day last week

My Gazebo is still up too Scrungee but not in my garden - in my daughters garden. She borrowed it in early December for a party - despite telling her on the odd occasions 'you want to get the Gazebo down whilst it's dry' - guess what - she didn't. So there it stands gathering all this snow when...

Looks great. Jealous.

There are little somewhat z-shaped metal things which latch onto to the top of the pane below to support the pane on top. The ones near the base have failed - rot sets in from the bottom - so many panes are just sliding gently downwards leaving gaps at the top. I could have a look at this but it...

If anything I think Electric will be cheaper (excluding the cost of connecting electricity to the greenhouse) In a normal/mild winter the heater will come on very little, the ability to thermostatically control it means power is only used when the temperature is low. In a very cold winter the...
