Topic: Plastic cold frame/4 tier mini greenhouse - where and what to buy?

[kippers garden]

I bought a 3 shelf one from Aldi last year (approx £12).  I used it loads last spring.  I got it out last week end and the zip broke!....false economy or just bad luck?

Bad luck. you can get covers for these, but I can never remember where.

Homebase do replacement covers for the 6 x 4 walk in ones for a tenner.  But I didn't notice any for the mini greenhouses.

Now to measure up and think maybe I'll invest in new ones !

The complete 3 tier mini greenhouse is £9.99 at Poundstretcher.  If that's the size you're after, maybe better to buy the whole thing again (if you can get to a Poundstretcher) and then you've got some spare staging too.  :)
