Thanks so far. The 'Potting shed' is a smallish 12ft x 5 ft attachment on the back of the house. Faces WSW. The Lady that had the property prior to us was a Gardener's question time type, tweed skirt et al and really knew her stuff (the Garden is full of the most wonderful plants etc.) Therefore I presume that she knew that the 'Potting shed' would work, but for what?? As there is a Propagator in there and a heater she obviously brought things on, but whether it is suitable for my purpose who knows. The glass area (above 3 feet high) is only 6ft of the 12 ft length. The rest, including the roof is a double skinned, slighty tinted (or grubby!) twin wall plastic, I guess to ensure that not too much heat or light perhaps got through. I can keep it warm in there at night as at this height it can still be chilly (sic), but I do wonder about the light levels. Tis a lovely warm (ish) bolt hole of an evening though. Listen to the wireless and just be Man in shed!
Anyway back to growing, but not up!!
Regards to all...................Martin.
