Sorry but i just wanted to say i have a greenhouse now!
I am so pleased with it, 6 x 6 and it is nearly full! At least the windowsills are clear now, i have forgotten what the bedroom looked like! At least i can read stuff in this catogory now!
All the best to everyone

Well done Jemma!

Bet you grow loads of lovely tomatoes this year  ;D


Moggle - who is very envious  :)
Lottie-less until I can afford a house with it's own garden.

I've been building one, well clearing the site and preparing anyway, for  what seems like an age now, although in truth it's only a few days spread across a few weeks.
I'm making it out of an old packing crate used to deliver some machinery to my old place of work, and an 800 square foot sheet of industrial polythene that some kindly soul gave me. It'll be about 10' x 6' when done, and I guess I'd better get a move on if it's to be used this year.
I have half the frame built, and hope to get it finished in the next couple of weeks (if I can find enough wood).
I've already got the toms and pepper seedlings on the windowsill, and I'm hoping to grow a few cucumbers too.
I was going to try melon, but would I be a bit late to start now?
I hoe, I hoe, then off to work I go.

Doris, Wardy you beat me to it.

Well done GardenerJ. Pic of mine in Gallery, also nearly full, and more to go in soon as empty curry takeaway boxes on window sill are sprouting again. You will never have enough room!!
Supernan!!

... I am warmed by winter sun and by the light in your eyes.
I am refreshed by the rain and the dew
And by thoughts of you...

YAY!  No place like it.  My little goldfish bowl heaven on earth.  ;D

Jemma - haveyou got a pic for us to see? and I'd also just love to see Robin's marvellous sounding creation.
Oh do send us some snaps. ;D ;D

RobinOfTheHood

Marvellous sounding? It's not marvellous looking, that's for sure.  ;)
OK, I'll take a couple of pics later.
I hoe, I hoe, then off to work I go.

2 1/2 months later, and I've finally been bothered to work out how to post an image.
This is the frame before the poly.



Sorry about the size...will rectify that later.
Rectified.
And Roy, thanks, but then it wouldn't be from me, would it?  :)

If you modify your post by cancelling it, all will be well. ;D

A very sturdy frame, should last forever ;)

Getting a bit full now, probably time to move the pepper pots.



Can't wait for these to be ready.

Robin, who's a  cleverboy then? It's brilliant - you've done really well building it - looks great. 10ft x 6ft - bigger than mine and size really does matter here  ;D ::)

Best thing is, it didn't cost me a penny... ;D ;D

Steve, can you not join the two greenhouses together to make one structure?  ???
