this is made from an old security light, we were given about 4 from a security firm, Ray stripped out the light and fittings, brilliant for starting seeds off in, anyone else use unusual things ?

I've saved the clear plastic box from some croissants we got this week. Not very strong, but should do one season at least.

not a cold frame but the clear plastic cream and yoghurt holders from supermarkets carry about 12 small / medium plant pots
