20th December 2010

Still freezing weather but I have managed to get all the stools that i need into the greenhouse and apart from Roy Coopland they are all on the soil heating cable. There is no sign of life yet so I am keeping my fingers crossed.
The picture shows the makeup of the soil warming bench
A dustbin bag on the bottom
Cover with river sand
The cable
Filled with last years compost that has been riddled with dusting of John Innes Base
I don't have a thermostat so it takes pot luck as to the temperature.
