I don't know about tips but this my greenhouse set up; http://www.thegardenersalmanac.co.uk/Data/My%20set%20up/My%20Set%20up.htm

Then go to the propagation & greenhouse section of my home page and that will give you some more ideas.

Plus I'm sure the others will have their ideas as well.

Like all gardening matters your own preferances will be the biggest influence on what you do.

What I will say is; a greenhouse puts a whole new dimension on gardening, so enjoy it.

By the way what size is it?

Thanks for that link Tee Gee

The size of the greenhouse is 6x8' . The glass needs a thorough cleaning and it also has an automatic vent.
What is the best solution to use to wash the glass ?

Washing up water mixed with vinegar! But BE CAREFUL - greenhouse is horribly sharp - gloves a must when moving or washing!
