Grow less???

Seriously though, I'm having the same problem and my greenhouse is 14'x8'

I've got shelves in the greenhouse, and also two mini greenhouses which gives extra shelving. Today I've moved the brassicas outside, and its trying to snow :shock: I've put the green beans and runner beans in pots at floor level. I haven't got a conservatory to put things into, but if I had it wolud be pretty much full

think vertical too - shelves?  hanging plants etc.

Have you seen the upside down tomato idea? Its on here somewhere
but I can't get to grips with 'search'.

I recommend kitting out the conservatory with shelving!!  My conservatory acts as an extra greenhouse and as a warmer base for more tender seedlings.

I've got container troughs fastened to a fence about 2 ft above each other, hanging baskets, and any windowsill that catches sunlight. I'm limited too but let your imagination run riot, you could surprise yourself!

I am now using all my radiaters and my coffee tables are pulled up to the radiaters and to eat at the table we have to put seed trays on the floor or outside! Not that I'm obsessed or anything! :oops:

Only sow what you are going to need and use, we allgo wrong there, I know. :oops:  

[lucywil]

trust me i have only sowed what we are going to use, and i still have some sowing to do, hubby wasn't too impressed with the idea of me using the conservatory but he'll come round

[jennyb]

he'll change his mind when he starts seeing seeds erminating, plants growing and i'm sure he won't be complaining when it comes to harvest time!!

i have the same problem but on a much bigger scale my polytunnel was so full the other day that i stuck all the brassicas out side now its nearly full again with the next batch and i have 1200 pots of herbs to find space for somewhere this week that im growing for 16 schools for wigan council think i need to get my cold frames built

[lucywil]

right , so the brassicas can go outside, so you bring them in again at night? what about leeks can they go outside? i know you can sow them direct but i always start them off first

[archibtbm]

i use those shelving units with a plastic cover in teh garden, stick a small paraffin cold frame heater in the bottom....... burner lasts for about 5 days.
