The message
from "nambucca" contains these words: Darren doesn't want to a GH of his own, he's doing a college project about them. i dont think theres much to choose between a DIY store Aluminium frame or a posh expensive one via a gradening magazine I suspect you've never seen the more expensive ones irl, to compare them. They have a far stronger construction frame than cheap ones from a DIY store (and often better glazing and ventilating systems, better door access etc). Frame-strength and glazing method are particularly important in exposed areas. Janet. |

Hi all, I am trying to find info on the average size greenhouse, I would really appreciate details on any greenhouse/s you own, ie size, style, materials etc. Any info would be a great help, Thank you. -- darran Get yourself a copy of adtrader or look on their web site http://www.adtrader.co.uk/ There are always loads of greenhouses for sale. My neighbour June and I bought three 10 x 6 garden centre standard glasshouses at an average of £60 each, including staging and automatic vents, plus a 10 x 8 Halls. The Halls is a much better quality job but the glass is expensive to replace because the panes are bigger than the normal 2 x 2. (But it is the only one that hubby didn't need to raise on brick walls to avoid banging his head!) June has two of the 10 x 6 houses joined end to end, which gives her walk through with a door at each end. Buy (or make) the biggest you can - you will still end up wishing you had more space! Incidently, ours have suspended wooden floors with gaps to allow water to go through. Our neighbour has concrete floors which get very slimy with algae by the end of the season. |
