Hi all

[Urban]

Don't give them free handouts though, employ them Ladybirds eat your greenfly, as do lacewings & hoverflies. Worms dig your soil, beetles & spiders eat slug eggs, blackbirds, starlings and robins will eat your vine weevil & chafer grubs ... etc etc

Yes that's what I'm hoping for got tons of ladybirds in the garden at the moment, I left them plenty of places to hibernate in, I'm also hoping the numerous frogs/toads get in on the act eating all those pesky slugs aswell, its fun watching all the wildlife, my back gate leads out into some woods so I get plenty of bird visitors

Just waiting for a fairly nice day ( or 3) and I'll get the greenhouse up
Can't decide how I'm going to do the floor actually if I put gravel down in the greenhouse I'm worried it will harbour disease and be hard to keep clean

Go into "Undercover Operations" Urban, there is lots of info about greenhouse foundations.

Greenhouse is up, just need to get floor and staging sorted

Really impressed with it though, turned out to be a bit bigger than I expected, 12.5 * 8.5 aprox
Is about 100 times better than the old 6*6 Argos polycarbonate one I had
And a million times easier to build, really nice design

Is a waltons 12*8 extra tall polycarbonate greenhouse, I got the bronze one as it was about £50 cheaper than the green one, is more of an olive green colour in the flesh

I'll see if I can work out how to post some pictures once I got the floor done

Well done you. I'd love a "proper" greenhouse. One day when my ship comes in. Sigh.
