Looks like a week or so of good weather after this weekend, so the big saw will be coming back out to finish the greenhouse and maybe start some autumn onions and garlic……

Finished all the framework today and started to paint it all in ducksback black for rough sawn timber. Looks really good now and sits back in the space better………im done now until the spring.

Need to save up some money now for the big deck cover job in spring as its going to be 7.5mtrs long and 4mtrs width……gonna be big job on my lonesome

Are you thinking of putting autumn garlic in your greenhouse? If so I'd advise against it as the autumn planted types require a cold period to crop properly.

It looks really well built. You mentioned polycarbonate glazing..... are you thinking of glazing the walls with twin wall? It would be a shame not to be able to gaze in on your growing crops from the outside of your magnificent edifice.

Its ducksback in Black, its got a wax within it and the water beads off it rather than soaking into it.

Looks like it'll be snug and warm in the cooler weather. A nice place to sneak out for a puff on the old pipe.
