I have a very old chest of drawers in one of my sheds. The bottom is
rotting
in one of the drawers and I was wondering if this would do as a
'beginners'
cold frame. It's very large measures about 5' long x 2.5' deepx 18"
tall.
It's very strong wood (except the bottom)and if I knock the rest of
the
rotten wood out of the bottom would it be alright to use as a cold
frame? If
it is, do I have to have sloping glass on top or can I just put a pane
of
glass on top and leave it flat?

Thanks in advance Shan (Ireland)

Best to have it sloping so that condensation formed on the inside does
not drop onto seed trays etc, also a slopping top sheds rain better.
