Greenhouse

Has anyone heard of Backyard Discovery? I'm eyeing up this https://www.backyarddiscovery.co.uk/products/2-7m-x-1-8m-bellerose-greenhouse?srsltid=AfmBOoqWCRTgaVCrhYBn4uvSMJGmTkG97VQOB6OdR0rom3ofu__MwLsI

 

After the other half told me that unless I wanted a divorce the chickens had to go, there is now a concrete pad just waiting for something. Who knew that the second hand Omlet chicken stuff actually fetches a fortune...

 

We are trying to avoid glass because the old railway embankment has lots of oak trees and whilst they are high up and the greenhouse wouldn't be shaded the acorns bloody hurt when they fall down on top of you and I suspect they would shatter and crack glass where this potentially may be a bit more sturdy and possibly looks a bit nicer.

We have just built a new Robinsons greenhouse. I’m amazed at how strong the glass is. It’s toughened glass. Would withstand acorns , but mature oak trees have a habit of shedding branches, that would be a different matter.

I think, but am not sure, all greenhouses have to be toughened glass now.

If under a tree keeping it clean could be an issue.

The 'glazing' is multi wall poly carbonate sheets, they go 'milky' after a short time and look dreadful.

Do they offer an acrylic option ?
