I am the 'proud' owner of a new greenhouse. Bought (new) from fleabay for a bargain price a couple of months back I've finally spent the weekend constructing.
Considering it was a fleabay purchase and so cheap I'm pleasantly surprised. The instructions were rubbish with pictures that don't really show any detail to know which way round pieces are to be put and at least 3 pieces numbered incorrectly. But anyway - its up and looking pretty good.
I've never owned a greenhouse before. I've been in a few people's before and assumed that they have a habit of having dodgy sliding doors either they only seem attached at the top or completely seized. So i was surprised that mine does run but is only attached at the top - you can pull the bottom an a small child could climb in... ...is this normal? Or could I have missed adding some form of little runner?
Secondly I'm going to use beds within the greenhouse. So the whole floor is currently bare soil. It is nearly 6ft wide so I'm going to have 2ft beds down left and right side. I do some square foot growing so this would make sense. So the question is what should I path the middle 2ft with? My other paths are woodchip / bark - any reason not to do this in the greenhouse?
