    HELP!!! Got A Green House

    I personally dont like grow bags laid flat as not enough root space,but they can be used on end cut in half. Large pots or in the ground with fresh compost is best IMHO

    What can I plant in the greenhouse now?

    Spinach is another toughy that you might try btw. You need to have started it a few weeks ago though as its too late to sow anything from seed now.

    Storing Autovents for winter

    If its a Bayliss, you just need to unscrew the end nut until it comes off.Then the vent wont open, you can just leave the cylinder in place.

    Mustard, Land Cress, Mizuna, perpetual spinage all might be worth a go for some winter leaves.
