Plastic Greenhouses

First we had a £10 four shelf mini greenhouse, to get a few things started early. This blew down in a gale and had to be moved back to the house.

Then I saw a plastic one on eBay, 3m x 2.1m x 2.1m and won the auction at a fair price.

I’ve always been interested in Victorian Hot Beds so my objective is to fulfil Monty Don’s challenge to ‘bring home something from the allotment every day of the year.’ I’m not a brassica man as they occupy the land for too long. So in the greenhouse we shall keep the tomatoes etc cropping for slightly longer and then (after changing the soil) will plant salad crops.

In the main garden we will have Winterover Spring Onions, Mooli radishes, mantanghong radishes, anything I can find that will survive or grwo during our winters.
