Greetings all. I have just joined the group and I look forward to
reading the boards and sharing in the discussion.
I am pretty much a newbie gardener. I took early retirement last year
and I am now starting to enjoy my garden, having spent the last 3
months building walls and beds! I have now put up my first greenhouse
and I plan to do the usual stuff with tomatoes etc next year. My
question now is, what can I do with it this year? It is a 6'x6' and is
in a position such that one side i partially shaded whilst the other
side gets the sun for most of the day.
I hope to sow bedding plants for the garden in readiness for early
planting next year but for now I would be happy for any tips. In fact,
I would be happy for any tips at all to help me get the most out of the
greenhouse.


Many thanks

Ian




Congratulations,Ian.
I suggest that you keep your garden organic. In this way
you will have produce as Mother Nature intended - natural;
otherwise you may as well buy the supermarket stuff.
In my active gardening days I used the Spring for
seeds and potting on cuttings,the summer for toms,
cucumbers,sweet and chilli peppers,herbs especially
parsley , and Autumn for chrysanths (the Queen of
the Autumn).I still have a plumbago in the corner,
my one luxury.
Enjoy your greenhouse.

p.s. Do what Prince Charles does - talk to them.
He's got my vote for that.
