Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[Cinnamon]

My husband has been very busy building me a new Greenhouse,& its very nearly complete - just the staging to finish off now!

We were lucky - he got a job removing 3 HUGE industrial Greenhouses,& getting rid of them, so we kept enough to make a new one for ourselves,plus several friends!

He has built it on a brick base,which I think looks really nice,& it has auto openers in the roof,which work & everything!

 

Sorry - I am very excited.It will give me 3 times the growing space of my old one

 

here it is - not looking very pretty at the moment,but I have big plans for it

Looks fab! Lucky you. What are you going to grow in it?

[Cinnamon]

Half the staging is now in - he should get the rest done over the long weekend (if I keep him supplied in gushing compliments on his work & builders tea)

 

The end bit is going to have trellis up & my Cucumbers. I may put a plastic sheet up to create a small mini climate there of the damp & steamy conditions they like.

 

The far long piece is going to have a mid height shelf as well as the staging,& my chillies,Jalapenos & sweet peppers are going there.

 

The front long bit,the one nearest the camera is having my tomatoes on it.

 

As well as that there will be a few big tubs with Squash in,as an experiment,& a few odd grow bags with salad leafs.the staging is big enough for 2 grow bags deep,so I can grow salads in front of the taller crops at the back

Might also consider a grape vine........

 

There are no ground beds as its on a concrete base,which is going to be pea shingles for extra drainage under the staging areas.
