Goodness!, a second greenhouse was desperately needed. Pity you can't make tiers for everything, but I guess they wouldn't get the sun they need.
You must have a huge garden to be able to plant everything out, and the potatoes are out already. Just hope you have a large enough deep freezer, or will you bottle some of the excess veggies?

Thanks for the coments Linda and Kedi, I had tiers for the plants last year Kedi but found that I spent most of my time moving them so they could get enough light , also watering was a problem. A lot of the seedlings are flowers as I grow them for my mother and brother in law as well as for ourselves, I also plant veggie plants in my mothers garden so she has plenty of fresh veggies. I used to have two flower beds at the front of the house which between them used to take 2,000 plants which I grew in an 8` x 6` greenhouse, moving them in and out to harden them off was a major job. Unfortunately I have no photos as this was before my interest in photography began Getting there but I wish the wind would go down a bit, couldn't do anything yesterday as everything would have blown away Alfie

2,000 plants - are you perhaps a gardener, Alfie? Well, you sure have your work cut out for you doing all that, not only for yourselves but also for your Mom and brother.

I don't grow as many plants as that now Kedi as those flower beds are now just grass, and no I'm not a gardener it's just now we have retired we decided to sart a veggie garden again and also decided to have a few flower beds again. It was a bit of a nightmare raising all thse plants with only one greenhouse ;D ;D

Managed to finish the greenhouse today, painted the glass with Coolglass shading put in temp staging and got my seedlings in so the other greenhouse is almost ready for the tomatoes. I'll have to make some more shelving for when we transplant the flowers. The cabbage etc should be planted out into the garden in about a weeks time. Alfie
