I have a few bits left so I may build a little light box out of it to place the plants in to photograph and see how that works. <br /><br />I read an article on the glass verses polycarb for greenhouses and one of the things they were saying about the polycarb was that it defuses the light, so while the light at the edge is not as bright compared to glass, overall you get a more even light through the whole greenhouse.

I really like your use of the polycarb...the light it produces is so wonderfully diffused :-)scottweberpdxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740930947767329183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1238598581399721410.post-5972372028731808222012-10-26T23:51:09.922+01:002012-10-26T23:51:09.922+01:00Oh and carpets or flooring apparently.Oh and carpets or flooring apparently.Spiky Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04336642361281619338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1238598581399721410.post-35962477778787855122012-10-26T23:49:52.265+01:002012-10-26T23:49:52.265+01:00Well done on the name, the central stripe is medi...Well done on the name, the central stripe is medio-picta and then the white version which is what you see more commonly is alba, the yellow version is often called aurea. It has really grown on me and I think I now like it even more than the white version. It really glows and if I can keep the snails off it, stands out in a group of pots.<br />Sadly my OH still is under the misconception that furniture and a kitchen are higher priorities than a greenhouse. Although there is exciting news so watch out for the next post.Spiky Obsessionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04336642361281619338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1238598581399721410.post-50165322695436780642012-10-26T19:36:14.904+01:002012-10-26T19:36:14.904+01:00Your photos always look great and no matter the ba...Your photos always look great and no matter the background, that agave (aurea?) looks good enough to eat. I love the golden yellow color of that one! Glad that you're settling in nicely. Any luck convincing your wife that a lovely greenhouse would be better than a new kitchen?<br /><br />outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1238598581399721410.post-64030466211183024842012-10-25T19:45:34.761+01:002012-10-25T19:45:34.761+01:00Thanks again.
