I got it last year around this time and it raised all the seedlings and then the tomatoes stayed in there and we had a great crop near to hand instead of bringing lots in together from the plot.<br /><br />Mrs Bok: I bought it flat packed and just put it together. First it was up near the shed where the hens are going to go but it did not get sun all day so I moved it nearer the house where it is now and it gets the sun for most of the day and the protection of the wall of the house.<br />Sprouting the potatoes is a matter of choice ,I think most gardeners do it.They usually sprout for about 6 weeks before sowing until the ground warms up enough.Nice sprouts about 1 inch long are nice and strong.In Ireland St Patrick's day is usually the time to have them in the ground but that may be a little too optimistic this year!<br /><br />Why I garden, we had hailstones on Sat too!I have it anchored down inside with rocks on the bottom bars and anything I can find to weigh down theoutside.<br /><br />Theanne, thanks for the comment I hope she continues that way.<br /> although she is not averse to joining in with the boys either! <br /><br />Willow, thanks, she is the youngest GD at the moment!<br /><br />Latane, I know the feeling, I have often found them in a kitchen cupboard too!<br /><br />Ann, I hope she stays a girly girl too,she is very into shoes too!I hope the hens look after thepest control too but reading the Bok Flock blog, the hens are turning up their noses to anything that wriggles!!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336168195436906219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-77111360584981486002011-02-28T20:05:46.014+00:002011-02-28T20:05:46.014+00:00It's nice to see your GD is a girly girl in he...It's nice to see your GD is a girly girl in her snow white outfit, I've noticed that girls with brothers are often very feminine in their tastes, good for them!<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing your hens and henhouse, they'll be a great help with pests won't they, plus their lovely eggs.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12502956712451039318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-8174353932921898362011-02-28T13:24:13.201+00:002011-02-28T13:24:13.201+00:00Oh my goodness...

I have to get a mini greenhouse in next as well but I'm not sure where to put it where it'll get enough light...does your greenhouse get sunlight all day long? What did you make it from? Oh and a question on potatoes, do you always wait for them to sprout before planting them into the ground and if you do, what do you look for before you know you need to plant them into soil? Thank you!littlekarstarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18177535712034761585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2977509261429741652.post-8251032613592167412011-02-27T18:23:07.568+00:002011-02-27T18:23:07.568+00:00For a mini greenhouse yours is quite maxi!
