Bargain to be had - T&M

Mine have finally arrived! teeny plugs that I think may be a bit late to form a decent root system before the labours of winter... We shall see.

 

10 x 6 give or take a few inches

 

It's been quite useful, and I have grown quite a lot in it. I had six cucumber plants down one side, and at one point I had 9 tomato plants in there too, however it was far too crowded with all those tomatoes and all I ended up doing was stifling them which resulted in leaves rotting off and all sorts; I also have four pots of sweet peppers still in there and doing nicely, as well as using it to bring on all my plugs and seedlings back in the spring.

At one stage, I had 200+ plugs and seedling in there until the weather picked up, currently I have 38 hardy fuchsia cuttings, the 36 hardy perennials mentioned in this thread, as well as approx 70 viola and cineraria plugs which will be potted on and evicted shortly.

The greenhouse I have gone for is slightly bigger (2ft wider) and will give me a little more height which will be useful, but it is surprising what you can squeeze into a polytunnel. One word of caution, the zips appear to be universally rubbish on them, so the 'doors' fail somewhat rapidly - if you are considering a polytunnel, I would strongly suggest that you look at wooden framed doors as per those shown in Steve's threads.

 

Thanks mum I'm hoping to have a bit more of a list next year with a bit more space available in the greenhouse.
