      Bit late to the thread but it looks like you've both done good jobs on the greenhouses.
      I found that additional W clips helps and definitely use silicone for the perspx panels.
      Moot point but I'd have dug the borders out in the greenhouse and planted into them. I have a concrete base and curse it every year!

        Hi there, thanks for the comments, I'm going to see how the gravel goes this year with pots - if not well then I'll dig it out next year - wouldn't be too much work really. Already thinking the greenhouse is a bit small! But the wife didn't want anything bigger as an eyesore on the garden (cheek)!

        Might get rid of the racking I have at present and make something better to go in there.
