    I have a bit of a dilemma, i have enough room to place my other gh at the side of the other one but i don't know whether to erect it or to turn the space into beds.

    I want to grow veg,toms,pots etc oh and a few flowers,

    what do i do?

    That looks like a useful sized greenhouse. I think I would dig a veggie bed at the side for growing things like potatoes and other root crops, and use the gh for toms, sweet peppers etc.

    If it's the same size join them together length wise.

    unfortunately can't join them both together as the drive way starts where the picture ends in front of the door, to the left just outside of the shot is my garage.

    i could grow stuff in the compost bags as per previous posts


    i will try and get better piccies over the weekend to illustrate

    I would put up the other greenhouse next to the one already there. Presumably you have no other space available for veg? You can still use the greenhouse cold for veg and if necessary put shading on it if it gets too warm in there. Then you have space to work in the winter without being actually out in all weathers. Only disadvantage I can see is the need to water as opposed to natural rain. But if we get a very wet summer again then it could be an advantage.
