Shade your greenhouse
Shade your greenhouse
21st June 2022
The brief heatwave may be over but the sun is still strong enough to scorch plants in a greenhouse when it breaks through, and make working inside there unbearable. If you are organised you can add purpose-built blinds to the greenhouse as you are erecting it - they are quite hard to retrofit. The blinds are basic rollers which can be pulled down with a special polehook to clip over the edge of the roof; there enough slack to allow automatic vents to open underneath the blinds.
