    Here is this year's plants. In the first photo you can see the first ready cue.

    Now to show the difference between each side of the greenhouse. The only difference is that the first gets the sun a little earlier than the other.

    Purplerallim - as a novice I don’t know anything about greenhouse clips. Having a look online there is a big range. Do you use metal or plastic and is it the ones you put in and twist?

    As my greenhouse is 25 year old I don't know if modern ones are built the same way, but these are the ones I use to secure the netting and bamboo canes to it @Kitty52

    My Rhino greenhouse bought in 2016 has the same groove for clips.
    The Rhino also has plenty of struts with holes in them so you can tie things up/Hang baskets from them etc. So I don't need the clips.

    Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
    Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
