Greenhouse advice

Hi I'll be taking delivery of a 10 x 6 greenhouse soon and was wondering what would be the best base to set it on. We have slabs under ours and everything is in pots, we do however have a trough for the tomato plant-pots to sit in, this trough is filled with gravel. We decided on slabs rather than a full concrete base to allow any spilled water to drain away. Have no experience of soil or partial soil under the greenhouse. Would imagine that an entirely soil base wouldn't be stable enough . The gravel will act as a soakawy and the slabs will give you something sturdy to put, say, staging on. Only caveat I can see with that system is weeds growing in the gravel, and the usual gravel 'migration' as it is trailed about on boots etc. http://www.cheesesoup.myby.co.uk/images/GH7.jpg Wee pic of what ours looks like. |
