Squashboxer said:I'm currently in the process of buying a house that has a large garden with an unusual shaped greenhouse. As this will be my first greenhouse, I hope I'm able to find out more about it so that I'll be able to use it to its best advantage.
The greenhouse has a base area of about 10' by 8', and has two sloping sides (the long sides slope inwards towards the top), what looks like a hardboard 'skirt' around the bottom 18", and there is no base. It is currently sited on grass with a big piece of lino laid to kill off the grass and weeds underneath.
Are greenhouses with sloping sides used for any specialist purpose? Or is it designed like that for stability? Do I need to consider a solid base for it?
It is made from aluminium and glass.
I would be grateful for any help.
Thankyou.
