You're not really taking this seriously, are you? I can spot a couple of spaces you haven't used yet. (Looks a bit like mine, except a lot of your plants are bigger & happier!)

That looks great. Ive started encroaching in the garden now. Have tommys hardening off tied to the garden furniture to stop them blowing over. The 2 mini Gh's are full too. Don't know what I did before I had them. The extra shelving on them comes in very handy for hardening off the plants. BTW do I spy flower buckets. lol. Keep up the good work. It will be great when we are harvesting the stuff we grow eh!

Wish I could get such close-coupled plants as those. But then, I've only been trying for 50+ years!!

But that space is where the ones which are hardening off go to sleep at night.  :)

Tim, they are not going to stay like that though goodness knows where they are all going to go - not a problem in your wonderful greenhouse.

I've actually run out of black buckets & I've got over 100!  I am resorting to all sorts of weird containers - chicken pellet buckets & window boxes etc.

Shirlton I think I shall have to invest in a mini greenhouse next year.

like I said they are really useful. £10 in Wilkies at the mo and you can break them down into 2 two tier stands. I have my bedding plants on them at the moment hardening off. I really do think that they are the most useful item I have purchased in a long while

All these references to Wilkos are really depressing cos I don't think we have one for miles.  >:(

I've just Googled them & we have one in Yarmouth & one in Derham - both about 20 miles & I never knew.  :)

You can buy online girl. lol, It's just some of the small stuff that you can't buy. We got our wire netting online and it was cheaper. The postage was covered by the saving though
