Greenhouse revamp

Mantis · May 28, 2006

Dug out all the old soil along with the pavers that used to run up the middle. Put in new soil from soil yard along with cow poop and a layer of compost on top. Instead of the pavers I have gone for two thick red gum planks that sit on concrete blocks to keep them off the soil - a boardwalk

.

Now the plants will have more room for the roots to roam without hitting up against the solid quarry dust base that was under the pavers.

I plan to grow tomatoes around the edge but now I have soil right accross the floor I will put some peppers up the middle.

Heres the other side of the greenhouse with self watering tubs waiting
