Hi can anyone help![]()
Looking for cheap greenhouse or small polytunnel for housebound lady who loved gardening but can now only do very little, because of illness and greenhouse would be ideal
What stage would you move pots into the polytunnel. I notice night temperatures in there are sometimes 7 C. Seems too cold still but wondering what people typically do. I was thinking the temps might need to be 12c or better at night? Am I too cautious?
Have you gone off line? filled out a online request a while ago and it go no reply☹️☹️☹️
