Hi all,

I put up my new 4x2m polytunnel a couple of weeks ago and haven't looked inside since.  The ground was clear when I erected it..

At least I know it's working!  Definitely now have a job for when the rain comes later today!

    I booked a few days holiday before Easter and have now cleared it. image

    Also added are gravel boards around the outer edges and made a raised walkway out of cut-down pallets and some spare lengths of timber to fill the gaps, then added about 15cm of compost to what have now become the borders:

    Amongst other stuff to go in there, I'm going to try yard long beans ''Dolcio del Metro' as I've failed with these when trying them outside.image
