They do an alloy fromed one with either glass or polly windows, or alternatively they do an all plastic one. they may not have it in stock but can order larger than thay have... If you look closely at various adverts you'll see that the alloy greenhouse is the same as several others claim to produce, but cheaper at the Big orange Block and Quale shed. The Q |

But also has a much lower transmission, so you get less heat in the first place. Good in winter but less efficient in the growing season. One benefit - when we have a scorcher you'll need less shading! |

"..... But also has a much lower transmission, so you get less heat in the
first place ......." Well .........horticultural glass has a light transition of around 90% whilst triple walled poly carb has a transition of 84%. this is normally compensated for by having less glazing bars and other structure as there is so much more strength in the polycarb sheeting also it if far lighter than glass. -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |
