Ok so I finally have my greenhouse up, a lot shorter than expected as it was supposed to be 1.8m tall, I need to duck a little to get in there and I'm probably lucky to be around 1.7m tall.
It was a lot bigger job than expected, all the cleared out area you see was completely overgrown with blackberry, here is a pic of what it was like there is actually a trailer in there I found
The greenhouse was pretty poorly made, some of the ties are on the wrong side of the cover, others sewn in wrong, and overall didn't really have any way to tie down to the frame at the base. What I did was tie it all down as best as I could and then ran a row of pavers around the bottom. So first thing I did was lay down weed mat, held down by small tent pegs, frame of the greenhouse went up and pinned down with large tent pegs, cover went over and tied down, row of bricks around the outside and then finally filled the inside with about half a tonne of rock for drainage.
The rock I used is just the cheapest available, its a mixture of broken cups, plates, bricks, pavers, glass, tiles and terracotta
Fuck that's an awesome greenhouse man. And some pretty ferocious blackberries you got going on. Must have got scratched to pulp.
