Latest experiment!!
These gutters (originally from Freecycle) were planted with strawberries outdoors but the plants were past their best so I decided to turn them into something different - a Greenhouse Gutter Garden (GGG).
Took the tops off the staging and rested the guttering on them - filled with compost.
5 rows of guttering, though not all full length.
Back row planted with beetroot seedlings.
Next row - spring onions
Next - radish
Next - Salad bowl lettuce seedlings
Last row - nothing - so far.
I'm sowing in small sections - when one lot germinates, I sow another lot of seeds alongside and move the seed label to the end of the sown part.
So far, so good and it looks like a good way to keep small quantities of veg growing, hopefully over winter. Also, easy to pick.
