Thanks for the encouragement guys. We have started with the tomatoes as in the pic but next year we hope to grow all sorts.I havent really a plan yet.My other half is better at that. Suffice to say that we wil try all sorts now that we have the room.Anyone know what is the best mix of soil to put indoors should i put some compost in also ,maybe manure or can i go with soil straight from the field. Costings? it worked out pretty expensive.
FILLING AND CONCRETE 1000 EUROS
ROOFING TIMBER ABOUT 500 EURO
CLEAREX AND OTHER ROOFING MATERIALS 1200 EURO
Thats about it as i had the windows.I supose it was expensive enough but its a big one and you wouldnt buy one for it plus i enjoy the diy aspect of it.Actually when i started i thought it might work out about 2k but ive no doubt its money well spent
