    Got a corner in the garden that the Mrs plans on setting up for growing veg for the 1st time
    ..

    the space is only about 12ft x about 8 - 10ft, we were planning on putting a small greenhouse here aswell for bringing on seedlings, cuttings and over wintering.
    I know its going to be depend on what we plan on doing and growing but i'm interested on know what others would do with the space, whether to have the greenhouse or have more beds for growing veg.
    without the greenhouse i could also fit in 1 possibly 2 compost bins
    ..
    i've attached a pic (or atleast tried to) ignore the old fence in the background, this was be removed and rebuilt shortly :yess:

    What's the overall size of the plot Giffas? A greenhouse is a bonus to have rather than an essential so if you're planning on growing veg I'd ditch the greenhouse and get digging.

    the greenhouse was just an idea nothing definate, Boss lady would like to make more use of the space, we've never grew veg before so this will be our 1st time and will prob start next year, mainly because we have no idea where to start or what to do this year lol
