Ive just used some old 5x4 fence posts to build my base.  Nice and easy to level up and solid as anything!

Just have to wash the frame and fit the glass now

Did you just lay the posts on the earth min?
Or did you fix them down somehow?....I'm in the process of moving my polycarb greenhouse and have some spare posts....but I wondered if they would be enough to hold it down???
I also have scaffold boards and wondered if I could fix them on edge somehow to give me extra height.

O I hate all this planning.......I want to be moving it

I wish I could wake up one morning and find that the fairies had been in the night and done it for me!!!!

trying to abide by the 'no concrete' rulle on our site I made a shallow trench, trod down the bottom, put in a layer of builders sand and rested breeze blocks on top of that - v easy to level and adjust and after a year no signs of movement. sure it's a bit of a dodgy method but so far so good...

moving ghouse to new plot later this year (doh!) and wondering if I'd get away with same technique but with a second course of blocks mortared to the first...

I had similar idea planned for here - I'll want to relocate it at some point so don't want anything permanent. What type of block did you use ? the lightweight blown blocks (7kg ones) are far easier than slabs to transport - but I wonder about using them in direct contact with the earth.

I used the standard block as it was the cheapest - took about 12 at a time in the boot of the focus so took 2 runs but the builders merchant is just round the corner...
