  • Greenhouse shading fabric. HELP>

    Hi all. I have looked through existing Qs but cant find answer to this.
    MOH built my new greenhouse last year. It has 3 automatic windows and two louvre windows so ventilations fine. Can anyone advise which exterior shading is best or recommend. I’m at a loss on line as choice is. baffling. I want green if possible and soft as opposed to the stiff plastic i had on my previous greenhouse (clipped inside and not very successfully!)
    Also we keep finding possible items only to discover its from USA and they want £95 P&P.
    Any ideas please.

        I use the paint although it is not very environmentally friendly. Apperently windolene cream works just as well if you can get it.

          I use net curtain clipped on with a curtain wire.
          I have had it for years.
          Just clip it on outside of the windows and take it down when the temp drops.

          And when your back stops aching,
          And your hands begin to harden.
          You will find yourself a partner,
          In the glory of the garden.

            I bought mine from Elloughton Greenhouses on ebay

            The shade is a bit darker than you get with debris netting, if that's what you want.

                Slightly more long-term, I have a grape vine growing on the sunny side, which blocks the sun as they grow over the summer
