I’ve just been browsing the web for a greenhouse instruction manual that might help me reassemble the greenhouse I won on Ebay earlier this week and found this site:

http://www.greenhousepeople.co.uk/info/Technical+Help.html

It’s got a list of lots of different sizes and and makes of greenhouse, plus some tips on preparing a base for your greenhouse. Might be handy for someone out there.

It may not look like it, but I’ve made excellent progress this weekend.
- 6ft x 6ft raised bed built from scratch
- strawberries planted out in one of my mini beds
- sweet peas and sugar snaps planted out - complete with wigwams
- raspberry supports errected
- 3 gooseberries planted out (thanks Jon)
- shed tarted up with various places to hang things

I think I’ve got a problem…can you be addicted to allotment gardening? :-)

More about Ragged Radishes...

Ragged Radishes is the allotment blog of Lucy Crosbie (that's me). As a novice allotment owner, I took on plot no. 27 at the Burras Lane site in Otley, West Yorkshire in Oct 2006. This is my online diary charting the redevelopment of the site over the next year.

Have a read, or just a nosey around and please feel free to comment on my posts and photos...
