I wonder if you couldn't rent that big Victorian greenhouse they have in Kew Gardens.................maybe too small for you?

Your pictures give a very good idea of how much you are growing. Thanks for posting. So nice to see what others are up to.
Good luck.

OMG!

i am actually so excited that i can recognise what you have in there - only a few days ago i would not have been able to identify a brassica seedling :D

How do you keep your things so flourishing, Emma, when they are on 'under' stagings & floor?

:o Tidy that lot up a bit will yer!!!

Just finished putting another one(8x6) up at weekend and when I got home monday she had filled it!

I often get moaned at for rummaging in skips for pallets to make compo heaps and when I go to the tip I come back with something I never took!

Caught her out the other day ;D she comes home with some staging/shelving that was just about to go into a skip :o

will post piccies og greenhouses soon & will try to catch them while they are a mess and blame Becky!

:o Emma you never cease to amaze me, I just don't know how you cope ::) ;D what's in those teenyweeny pots in the second piccy, reason I ask is that I have a few and was wondering what on earth I could put in em? ;D

Mrs Ava · « **Reply #9 on:** April 07, 2005, 23:03:34 »

I shuffle things around as best I can Tim and everything does seem to do just fine. I do have some sliver reflective paper on one side to try and reflect more light.
The teeny pots are used when potting up teeny seedlings. My chilli seedlings went in them, now I have some with salvia seedlings in. To be honest Roy, if it can hold compost, there is a good chance I can find something to go it them!
It is always a mess, year round! Even when I tidy it is a mess, but it is mine and I love it with a passion. I adore my greenhouse and have it packed to the rafters year round.

Wow EJ, yours is obviously a very productive G'house!! Puts my recently aquired effort to shame!!

wattapain · « **Reply #11 on:** April 08, 2005, 09:24:04 »

Emma, love the pics of your amazing g'house.
I just got a new one (well 2nd hand via ebay ;D).
Brian, my OH hs just spent an age putting it all together, finished it Monday and at last it is up & running. So I can now really start inearnest. I have a sweet little octagonal one which is FAR FAR too small, but was all I could fit in before so there was a bit of garden left to actually plant things. But now we have the lottie, well need more greenhouse space to start off all the extra plants we're gonna need! You guys understand Yes??
Anyway here's a few pics of the greenhouses so far. As you can see I have no extra shelves yet - awaiting delivery and all the plants are still at seedling stage in weeny pots. Come mid/late May I suspect I'll have the same problem of lack of space, but at present it is great to have so much more of it. Haven't even sown lots of outdoor things like toms, courgettes, cucumbers etc.
Like Emma, I absolutely adore it and am out there any chance I get. Will try to post a few pics , haven't done this for a while so could need several attempts.
Also a pic of my baby greenhouse toms and my other greenhouse.

Am having all sorts of problems posting these pics - all different sizes and how do you pst several pics together??
Aaaaarrrghhh

Good to see these pics. I'm very jealous indeed :( Great buy off eby that! Wow!! I would love a greenhouse but I think I might soon be the proud owner of a pile of scrap masquerading as a greenhouse. One of the old lotty guys has given it to me. Mangled metal and broken glass. Aren't I the lucky one ;D Silk purse and sow's ear springs to mind.

I bet you can't wait for the extra shelving to arrive so you can start packing em in. I see from EJ's post that not a square inch of space goes to waste in her greenhouse - I don't know how she has room to turn round ;D

Post another pic when you get it filled :)

Andy H · « **Reply #13 on:** April 08, 2005, 10:30:57 »

Aha! Same as the one I just got for free! ;D

Wattapain - You did well with that purchase off Ebay ! :o I never thought they sold greenhouses on there !?

Well done - And the plants look just gorgeous!

;) :D
