What a difference a year makes
« on: October 01, 2006, 09:49:21 »
Hi all
Im new to this site. I love gardening but i only have my own garden and not an allotment, my wife has just got her own plot, pic s will follow.
I thought i would show you what has happened to my new greenhouse since it was built at the start of the year. The staging i built myself the only thing i'm not happy about is the height of the top shelf, but i will resolve that when it comes time to clear out and fumigate. To the photos-

And at the ens of year 1

Looking forward to next year.

oh please do try posting the pics again.......... you've got the end tag there [/img] but not the beginning one [img].

there's a few of us that are limited to our back gardens as plots and i'm always really interested to see what other people have in theirs.

if i were you, i'd treat your wife very nicely and ask if you could borrow a wee corner of her plot !   ;D

welcome aboard.

p.s. and you can modify your original post by clicking the "modify" button rather than create a new post (just like i've done with this one).

AND you can delete any of your own posts by clicking the delete button in the message box.  ;D

Great pics, lovely greenhouse. Everything looks so neat.  Shed/loft?

i planted marigolds as a companion to my carrots, and onions AND they were raised up and not one sign of fly damage.

my back lawn was sacrified totally for veggies but the front one is a mess.  i keep planning to get rid of that as well, but then i think i should concentrate on getting it looking like yours and use the cuttings more wisely.

sorry to hear of your op, but hope you're getting on better now.

Leadlotus. Great pics. We (as a family) used to race pigeons in the early 80's. Nice staging!!
