Greenhouse Growing

BONUS FIND :WINK1:

Thanks Jenny. It's true, we can't help but worry about the little things!

The bigger the greenhouse, the easier it is to control the greenhsoue (although if you leave it closed it will still cook :( but in Summer its hard to keep 6 x 4's cool, much easier with 12 x 10 and bigger. With smaller greenhouses yo can open door and vents, but all you are doing is creating...

I have bought quite a lot of stuff from Greenfingers they really are a useful site and they are always happy to put anything right that you are not happy with............

I'm lucky with the wooden base of my GH, it's teak that was once part of colliery headgear. It's probably now around 100 years old and there's no sign of rot. The same though can't be said for some parts of the wooden framework, it's about 25 years since I built it and has started to rot in...

base height wont be an issue as we`ll be building a brick base for them both - im just hoping we can do something with the profile

Great idea Rosietutu!

I think this one is beyond repair or at least my DIY skills lazy dog haha but i will try and get some pics for you to see. I think I will try the polythene or the conservatory plastic and see what happens, I will just put a few tomatoe plants in there and if it doesnt work this year then try...

How about a black and white Chequerboard floor Woo.

Yes, we did something very similar with our greenhouse door, worked a treat!! Val

I think if the bench ran N-S it would get light from both sides, so the things on the shelf would be better (but put them near the outside edges of the shelf, not in the middle of it) If the paint it white-ish I expect its splitting hairs to have pure white. I didn't really understand the...

I use Armilatox sold now as a cleaning agent.Any consolation I also put 10mm into a watering can when watering plants, have used this method for years with no ill effects.Trevor

I have always thought how expensive it is ... I got some Dexion (angle-iron) and some concrete reinforcing mesh (its a bit better than that as its either Aluminium and doesn't rust, or is powder-coated), but I wouldn't want to have to put-it-up and take-it-down too often!

If you have electricity in the GH as you obviously have, then as John says it would be much (very much) more economical investing in a heated propagator. Apart from anything else if you buy/make one with good thermostatic control you'll get better better germination. Bubble wrap makes a vast...
