Oh right......... you had a straight sided greenhouse then? I listened
to advice and got a Dutch light one which I have always regretted. So
much easier with straight sides and more headroom etc.

Something like the ones on:

They don't look too bad to me. The slant does make some structural sense.



Well the argument was that a Dutch light one would enable more rays of
the sun to get to the crops inside but the design doesn't allow for
decent rows of shelving or headroom as the base is the same size as a
straight sided house.

My Alton greenhouse has very little structural reinforcement and now
bows along the length just a bit. I thought it would last longer but
most people seem to think 25 years is good.
