    Hi Sunflower, I’ve never done anything with the wood just left it to weather.

    Here’s our greenhouse. The wood has a 50 year guarantee but is confidently predicted to be good for 70+ years. I’d say it will not need any treatment for at least 15 years.

    Looks really good @BenCotto.

    Whilst the wooden ones are beautiful, given it can’t be seen from the house, have you considered a poly tunnel? Bear with! Not the usual ones that can be rather flimsy, but a Keder Greenhouse designed specifically for windy, exposed locations?

    That's a great suggestion @Nollie

    My poly is knackered and needs replacing so Keder are on my mind. I would love to have one. There’re not cheap though, Sheps!

  • Thanks Nollie. I hadn't even considered anything like that 😊
