Right im thinking ahead here what are these like im thinking about getting one like a 3.5mx2m ready for winter

Originally i was going to get a secondhand greenhouse but proving to be difficult with transporting a hell of a lot of glass lol

Your views please

Miggs where abouts in Norfolk are you i can help collect a greenhouse in my trailer if you cover my fuel cost, I'll give you a hand to dismantle and reassemble it if you need it to

cheers brian

im in tacolneston

not to far from me then i am over the other side of the A140 in Woodton just the other side of Hempnall, send me a pm if you do want a hand with a greenhouse or anything else big i have a land rover and a old military trailer which had no trouble collecting my 6x8 g/house, potting table and loads of pots in when i bought my secondhand g/house. all i ask is you cover my fuel

brian you are a star no worries on £££ i will look after you

so do i go for a s/h greenhouse or a polytunnel decisions decisions

the cheap polytunnels disintegrate after a year or so,if i could go back three years i would have had chosen glass over plastic

One thing i will say is if you do buy a secondhand g/house buy some new ali nuts and bolts for putting it back together i didn't when i bought mine and some bots snapped whilst undoing them but even more snapped reassembling the g/house, buy them of ebay as i could only find them in packs of 5 at silly prices around the local g/centers and b&q/homebase

well i got a poly tunnel

just got to put it up now

Is it a proper polytunnel with a strong steel frame, or a flimsey thing like mine.

Mine is HERE

i can help collect a greenhouse in my trailer if you cover my fuel cost

Wow..flippin ek, such kindness Brian!

same sort of size but very different the frame is 30mm steel tubing that bolts together and is very rigid im now looking to get a replacement cover as that looks not very good so going to get the proper stuff and see how we go

Great inventions

But what about ground frost?

..creeps out of HT

that was going to be my next question what heating to use

There was a whole range of methods put forward here http://www.hardytropicals.co.uk/forum/v ... 120&t=2905, but my problem at the moment is stopping things frying
