Definitely get a glass greenhouse. You should contact a greenhouse maker. Tell them about your channel and you might get a big discount. It very important to have a solid base for it to sit on. Get good advice as they cost

We are all learning, I adore how honest and down to earth you are about life. You aren't afraid to be silly or curious or honest. I think it's why we all feel invested and adore you taking us along so much. ✨

Hi Emma put your greenhouse where you should have enough space to walk round it & clean the glass & maintain your beautiful greenhouse house 👏👏👏👏 it will change your life! when I got mine i just sat in it for ages & love it when it rains hearing the rain when potting around just love it lv Irene 😘 xx

Emma with regard to your gloves. I use a peg with a piece of string attached then hang the string with the peg swinging. Easy to peg pair of gloves up in the shed. It helps to dry them too 🤩

It’s official I have parsnip envy Emma, well done you 🎉. I need to mention you literally are the “Wildlife Whisperer” what with Eisenstein, Mr Fox and Rocky! Even the crows and parakeets show up at your voice ❤❤…. Even the mice got the memo now😅😅

I was watching you with my mum, she noticed about your potatoes error, but she said you were so sweet and innocent about it.. my mother asked me this morning if your video was ready she wanted to watch 😊😊😊

I feel like you need to reconsider your "messy backside" of the lot! Just get rid of those brambles and do a skinny long bed and just do flowers every year as a border! You could collect more and more permanent plants too along the way :)

Absolutely love your vlogs, brilliant Emma, keep it up and never change!

Polycarbonate panels blow out in the wind. Toughened glass is the way to go.

Thank you for making it ok to get it wrong sometimes!!! I spend half the time at my plot making an idiot of myself 🤣🤣🤣

[margaretalice]

I love growing & eating parsnips. Better than a potato reveal

[serobinson]

Those pipe things you saw would be great for putting over crops with some cover

[Annie--G]

Hello there Emma, I definitely think having the greenhouse framed by the archway is much more convenient, however I think a glass greenhouse will be a lot more sturdy. I also love how excited you got pulling up those gorgeous parsnips, your smile is so contagious! 😄

[judithbeavis]

You want glass not poly, they break easily and you would be lucky to replace them. Also 6x8 won't hold many plants especially tomatoes. We found 10x12 a better greenhouse.

[AudreyM-yofb]

“There’s always one.” 👀🤣 I would get the non-glass version. I wouldn’t want to deal with the broken glass issue.

[cassieinthegarden]

Hey Emma, I’d watched your potato harvest and thought the same! I thought they can’t be the seed pots as they aren’t mushy! 🤣❤️thanks for sharing 🥰

[margaretalice]

First year we grew gladiator parsnips they were monsters I’ve bought smaller swedes 😂. I thought oh no they’ll be woody. Huge parsnips taste as fabulous as small ones.

[helenagreenwood]

Put the greenhouse lined up with the archway so you can see it looking through 🌿 and a bench at the side to sit on to have a sandwich and a cuppa 🫖☕

[jaynekennedy]

So sad to see our world covered in plastic. My plot was the same when I got it. Almost none left now. I use cardboard and wood chips as pathways now and just top them up.

[christinamichael]

I knew you would eventually onow it was a seed potato.
Indeed funny watching you 😅
