Finally finished so a few weekends ago i had my new greenhouse arrive in various boxes
16x8 Elite Belmont with a few extras
prepped the base and finally had sign off from the missus saturday that it was finished
so yesterday spent moving some chilli's in
The light is a solar charged light i picked up off ebay, 24 led's and very bright
its not as a grow light but just gives me another couple hours at night till the longer nights come in
managed to pick some mushroom trays up from a mate who knows a greengrocer as 12 9cm pots fit just right
the bigger potted are chillis i overwintered in the back bedroom (Bengal Naga, Dorset Naga, Choc Hab, Bhut Jolokia)Last edited by The Large One; 20-02-2012 at 11:34 AM.

Love it. Looks solid and well made. Love your order going on in there; after my own heart. Interested in that light - did they have more or was it a one off?

all colour coded to heat levels ATM...have to confess, missus was involved in that little arrangement but it does seem to work
plenty of lights still listed
they do a slightly different version with 2 8w fluoresant strips but thought LED's better as no maintenance, i'm gonna get another 1 for the other end

Great looking greenhouse fella, I think if I bolted both my lottie greenhouses together its still would come up short against yours. Maybe when my 6 year old lad stops blasting a ball around the back garden I'll have a one in the garden too..

My wife won't let me in the garden at home. She says I just like cutting things down!
That's not true. I like cutting things up too!!!

Thanks chap! Am disappointed now I know you're not in touch with your feminine side when it comes to your arrangement. But tell the missus I'm impressed

I have an Elite greenhouse - but it's quite a baby compared to yours 6 X4'6" I think from memory, I'm very jealous. Enjoy it!
