Well done mate looks a treat, can't beat a bit of graft on the lotty, :)

I'm particularly pleased because it's almost 20 years old... on it's 3rd "site" and cover... the frame is still good... needed new doors/frames. The company have made some changes to the construction which is a great improvement..  :)

Looks good, mine will need a recover before long, best do it before the winter sets in. I am thinking of adding a second one as it does not matter how big they are, you still run out of room.

Do you grow directly in the ground? I mainly use mine for bringing on show plants and our more exotic stuff. I have discovered that the carpet used in wedding marquees is used once and skipped, so I lay it down on the floor for extra warmth, up to as many as 10 layers. I just lift one when it gets too dirty.It also makes it really steamy in the summer when I just wet the carpet and let the moisture rise and do it's bit. Just  have plenty of ventilation at night to discourage mould.

I tend to grow in bottomless pots... but will have a go at some over winter lettuce like Bronze Arrow..  :)

yaaay, looks loads better than when I saw it last  ;D
Are you going to do your sweet potatoes in there?

saddad

Not sure I will have enough space... but If I get back on the committee this AGM then will be growing them in the "Big" Greenhouse..  :)
