Made the decision, poly tunnel coming next week. Will fill one of my 3 veggie patches, leaving 2 to split to give me a 4 year crop rotation rather than the 3 I do now. My question is however, what advice can anyone give about rotation in the tunnel? its a 15x10 that I will path down the middle. Thanks, Paul
A bad days fishing is still better than a good day at work!
with my two tunnels i grow tomatoes and peppers in one and cucumbers and melons in tother and swop over each year. and cram everything else in between the strawberries as best i can trying to avoid planting the same crop in the same place twice running..

hi Brooklynodog
its not been too bad here , went out after tea and put the plastic sheet back on a couple of the empty beds. a friend down in town (somerton)has lost a couple of fence panels and posts. but i dont think the winds been any worse than we often get, last year a neighbour had a couple of mature trees blown over but none gone this time.
