SHOW US YOUR RECENT PURCHASES 2018

I will just give them away i usually spend over £100 on plugs, ive only spent £20 on seeds and a bit on soil, ive not finished yet .

 

I'm loving your enthusiasm have you got any fleece to lay over them for next week? It's going to be cold so don't loose them now
Get them off the ground if you can, on bricks, upturned pots etc, and if possible keep them frost free
I'm only presuming here,btw, your little babies are tender annuals ? Even if they're hardy annuals I'd protect them these next couple of weeks

 

Thanks Loki, there already of the floor the GH floor is a floating floor, ive only just put the seeds in, i presumed they would only germinate when it warms up, i had no intention of putting a fleece on them i thought the GH would be good enough ?

 

@martin-f check this link mate as it tells you about different floorings for greenhouses

The Best Greenhouse Flooring Materials | The Do It Yourself Greenhouse

 

Thanks Gail but i dont see anything wrong with what ive got ,

Its wood that's warmer than concrete and its floating IE not touching the floor.

 

Well it sounds ok to me with how you've got them lifted besides the flooring @martin-f but does it get very cold in their even when temps drop

 

Where would gardeners be without plastic Trugs , they have 101 uses in the garden
Good find @Clare G , that will be a nice plant by July with a little TLC .

 

Hardy annuals should be fine just watch out for the hha ,half hardy annuals annuals, if unsure cover them overnight . Fleece is cheap, old sheets are cheaper just uncover them in the morning

 

Well someone will have to correct me if i am wrong this is how i see it ,

I have mainly hardy annual seeds but not all in the GH they was only put in recently some a few days ago some yesterday some today, there is no sign of germination at all,

Being a total novice my head is telling me the seeds will only germinate when there warm enough so don't fleece unless i see signs of germination ?

I was out at Bakewell today, i could have brought this chap back with me i was wondering why he was laughing at me .

 

Ah the question is @martin-f was you thinking of the fleecing or meal time

 

Hardy annuals will germinate eventually
Half hardy annuals won't like frost. Might germinate.
Tender annuals
I wish you luck

 

Thank you Loki, so the frost will/can kill the seeds on tender/half hardy annuals.

 

@martin-f I know this is abit different from Greenhouses but up the garden centre the other day I spoke with one of their staff and on about plants, she said with low freezing nights anything you think it may affect fleece it, I said we got none ...so I would take @Loki advice

 

I understand how plants grow and how to speed up the process ,

As i see it, what im doing i will get some success but not as much as a heater and tendering to them,

Like i said early on

i will get some success for surebut time will tell i will report back what comes up without a fleece .
