Hello everyone, been a while - new greenhouse

[Chris Graham]

Hi everyone,

Not been on here in quite a while.  My garden veggie plot has now been covered over with grass so the kids had more space and my 6x6 greenhouse got destroyed in the recent storms.

I claimed for a new one and decided to go for a 5 x 10 which will allow me a lot more space. Its great having the greenhouse back up and running.

Its heated with an electric fan 2kw heater and keeps things cozy. Doesnt go below 10 degrees so i have already planed two tomatow plants in grow bags and the other seedlings are comming along really well.

Still planting in pots and raised beds and looking forward to this growing season.

How is everyone, Teegee, Saadad, Tim ?

Hello Chris, welcome back.

I also lost my greenhouse in the winds, but I was so lucky that somebody nearby was wanting to get rid of one, so I have now got a replacement up.
It's a bit smaller than before by about 6 inches each way, but it is more solid and in better condition than previous one and better anchored.

It is such a nice feeling not having to look at the empty space that was my greenhouse.

Hi again, I was interested in your mention of the electric fan, I have just bought one as I lost a load of seedlings in my until now unheated greenhouse; does it reliably cut in and out to keep it frost free?

Hi Deb,

I lost the instructions to mine so just messing about with it but so far it works well. Doesnt let it go below 10 degrees. Not should of the cost though as its been on quite a lot, even during the day. Might turn it down to the 1kw setting and see how i get on.

Good luck with your one.
