Gardeners world Friday 26th

This Friday they are starting a feature on GW about greenhouses, I only half caught the announcement on last weeks show as I was on the phone at the time.

From what I could gather they have bought a second hand 8ft x 6ft and plan to use it to grow veg in it to eventually fill a 30ft garden, did anyone watch the show and can you confirm and or correct me on this?

Steve...

 

Fri 8.30pm Gardeneres World. Toby Buckland explainds why the greenhouse does not need to be a stark wall of hideous glass in the corner of the garden and Carol Klein looks at bulbs for a gravel garden. << Courtesy of Sky so if its wrong blame them not little old me

 

Yeah that's what they said. They'll prob be building it too as it was in bits lol

 

Well, let`s see if they can build it right-I bet they don`t have expandable spray foam, silicone sealant, duck tape and galvanised wire holding theirs together like mine does:lollol::lollol::lollol::lollol::lollol::lollol:

If you want a laugh you need to come round mine for a drink and have a gander.

 

that's an easy way of getting cheap albour to work on your greenhouse..youcould have a spot a problem fix a problem night..

 

What an excellent suggestion, thankyou so much for volunteering Mossy,

 

the drive from south west ireland to you might be a bit of a trek...would really want to be more than 1 beer

 

I will give you as many as you would like,

a nice place you are there-my family come from Cork-which is nearer, I`ll get them to give you the beer.

 

I really like the new presenter he is a joy to listen to minds me onJeff Hamiltion ,he said on 1st programe tiem toplant japenese onions no one local sells these.

My husband made me a raised veggie bed out of old slabs and turned on their side.

Enjoying very much.

 

Hi All
Theres a right row going on BBC Message Boards about last nights programme,apparently the cheap and cheerfull is offensive to some people.i havent seen it yet as here in Wales we have rugby Friday nights so its shown Saturday instead

 

I missed it last night Pam.

 

Hi Kath
If you have sky or similar you can get regional tv.its the last channel numbers and as i say during the rugby season,which has just started, BBC Wales shows it Saturday nights ,fluctuating times :roll:

 

Toby Buckland seems fine to me. I guess the series is aimed at new gardeners, and there's nothing wrong with that. Cheap and cheerful goes down well with lots of folks.
