Greenhouse Growing

I'm with you now, tried to picture it but kept coming up with a picture of a staircase by Escher in my head. Thats usually a bad thing in my case.

Mine and my parsnips are frozen solid under a blanket of snow in my raised veggie bed.

I had to replace 2 panes last week, went to glazier and asked for a standard horti glass 2ft pane, and I needed the triangular piece for the apex, which I did have the old one with a corner missing, he may have cut the triangle but they keep the squares ready cut, he informed me 610 is size now,...

So am I, hans. Would have loved a cedar one but couldn't afford even 6x8', and second-hand isn't an option as I can't manage that kind of DIY anymore

Yes thank you ☺

Started indoors, walked to the greenhouse and placed on staging, then put in a heated propagator, and finally brought back indoors to download data.After tonight I'll know what happens to temperatures in a polytunnel overnight, then I can check stuff like inside coldframes, under fleece, in...

I like to think that is down to my expertise Steve.:yess:

I have mixed lettuce in pots with plastic bells on top and carrots as well. Both germinated weeks ago but I picked enough salad leaves for a meal this evening. Doubtfull about the carrots coming to anything, I might have to eat the leaves with the salad stuff!

Thank you for you help and ideas.

Kristen, it can all get a bit confusing I reckon. Somewhere I read that manure has no value as a fertilizer, but rather creates an environment where nutrients within the soil can be released effectively. Or was that Lime ?

Hi how about a poly tunnel regds Alex

yellow edge is they are cold or they need a feed or both

Your greenhouse does look like a Halls one as yours looks identical to the one we had where we used to live.I have found this link that might be able to help you.Give them a ring or email them and tell them your plight and see what they can do for you. Good Luck and hope that you get the part...

I use sticky yellow cards in greenhouse and polytunnel. They don't completely eliminate the pest but do reduce it quite a bit. You have to keep them quite close to your plants.

IIRC ricky101, it's whitefly that African Marigolds repel. Marigolds self-sow in my polytunnel each year and there has never been a whitefly problem, so I tend to believe in that tip

Sorry hadn't read @Kleftiwallah post when I replied, don't read my post as a criticism of the earlier suggestion of N-S
