Making My Green House

[ungreenthumb]

i am going to make a green house. i have got foundations of an old bird cage. it faces north and gets sunlight from about 8 in the morning till about 2 in the afternoon. it has cement bottom, with a meter strip of sand / dirt (could be good for drainage) then another 1.5 meter's of cement it has 2foot edges and a 6 foot back and short side walls. it has had the roof taken off but i have plenty of corregated iron and clear corregatd roofing. it has got water access and a peach tree growing in the middle. i'm going to fill the dirt area with stones so i don't spread the dirt, and paint it white again. i'll take a photo and post it asap. any tips and hints welcome forthose common green house problems/ pests

Sounds like your all set. I need some of that clear corrigated roofing for my greenhouse. Mine has been on for twenty years or so and has turned yellow. I know there are newer and better materials out there now. Lots of luck on your greenhouse.

not completly off topic but almost

Ever since I went to see the new Wallace and Grommit (Curse of the Were-Rabbit ) I've been wanting a green house like that priest had --- a gothic arched stained-glass green house :wub: it was so cute

do you think anyone makes those for real?

they wouldn't make them the way they used to, but... you could cheat and get the stained glass stickers that you can put on and take off
