Maybe this should be in top tips ???
A few years ago when I moved into my last house it came complete with a small greenhouse, didn't use it to its full potential but the garden was a real sun trap and on sunny days the greenhouse got far too hot despite the door, windows and vents being open.
Anyway I was clearing the garage one particularly sunny day when I came across my old 2 man ridge tent and there was a eureka moment.
I unpacked the tent and removed the top cover. (it was one of those tents with the poles inside the inner tent and then the water proof layer is put over the top and pegged down)
It just so happend that the tent outer fitted the top of my greenhouse exactly.
Since then every carboot sale I go to and see two man tents I think they should sell them as greenhouse shading and ask twice as much for them ;D
