Large Fruit Cage idea

[21again]

I have bought a new 6' x 4' plastic walk in greenhouse and was about to throw the other away as it is shot at but had an idea.

As anyone who has had one of these greenhouses knows, the plastic perishes after a while, you get little squares of plastic everywhere which drop out of the cover and you are just left with a green mesh of a greenhouse!

All of my plants are in pots including three 12" square tubs with Glen Ample rasperrries.

Would they be ok if I put the pots inside this old greenhouse and used it as a large fruit cage to protect the fruit from the birds?

They would still get lots of light and some rain but I water them anyway.

What do you folks think?

Sounds a brilliant idea.

I had decided to use my walk in greenhouse frame for putting around different fruits as and when needed, as it's light enough to move around (not actually got around to it yet though).

However I hadn't thought about keeping the old plastic structure on it too, I was thinking I cover it with netting.

Yours is an excellent idea and uses all the old greenhouse.
