Planted them up in wide mouth growbags four days ago. To my amazement within 48hrs little green shoots were showing through. I've ...

Greenhouse Reflections !
Just a little tip which I've found useful at this time of year when the sun isn't as high or days are as long. Those silver refective sheets that you see inside car windscreens on hot summer days are perfect for sitting on the back of staging. In my case with the position of the g'hse east to west t...

Thanks to all who replied to my question. My brother who has just started an Ebay shop for gardeners seems to have come up with a solution. Don't know if it works yet but he's now supplying a timed watering system for £24.99 plus delivery. It is battery operated and with a bit of fiddling I should b...

Good to see that someone has recognised the Greenhouses are a great buy and a lot of you have bought plant labels which are a bit of a bargain. They've got that s...

Automatic Watering
I'm going on holiday in May for three weeks and by then my greenhouse crops should be well on. I have a large water butt with a hose and good pressure running past the greenhouse and want to tap into it to drip water onto crops when I'm away (and when I'm here).
