    Just a warning that if you have overwintered plants indoors or germinated seeds indoors remember when you put them out into the greenhouse, or just a sunny position outside, to shade them for a few days. It doesn't take long for them to be damaged, agricultural fleece works a treat.
    Mention this as I've just managed to damage three cacti that I put out yesterday and forgot to protect.
