      Hi Folly,

      I have just go my first greenhouse to and i am pretty much in the same boat as you as growing things in a greenhouse, i have not put it up yet as i need to sort out the foundations, like you i have a big patio and 3/4 will sit on that and the other well it needs rasing about a half a foot as it was a flower bed up until now i also have to dimolish part of my patio wall to do this, drastic measures i now but its the only position when i can get it side on facing south, but like you say i feel like i am on cloud nine:hapfeet:

      I will take some pics of the progress and post them on here if anyones interested

        Folly THE MOST IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU NEED erecting your greenhouse IS

        MAKE SURE THE DIAGONAL MEASUREMENT OF THE BASE IS EXACT

        Do not go any further until this is so, then secure it so it does not move

          And that the base is level, just a slight unevenness will cause problems. . .
