DIY Repair

DIY Repair

Mini square greenhouse with a flat zip up lid had one major design flaw. All the rain collected in a pool in the plastic lid until the weight of the water ripped the plastic!
So have now made a new roof shaped lid from bits and pieces and draped polythene over to ensure rain runs off.

This holds all my plants in fleece. The greenhouse is lined with polystyrene and cardboard for insulation, hope the plants haven't suffered while I made this repair!

Thanks Aleyna, love your flowering balcony! I am just a bit jealous as I would love to grow exotic plants, but here it is cold and the soil is wet cold clay! I'll have to just look at your photos when I need bright flowers to cheer me up!
