Cinnamon Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
