Dodgy Constructions

Growing the tomatoes in the greenhouse creates the perennial problem of how to support them - last years solution was a complete bodge, so this year decided to do something slightly more ... proper. Fixed some spare brackets:

 (IKEA ones, which you are supposed to tie your furniture to the wall with, like anyone does that!) and fixed some canes to the apex of the roof and the tops of the walls - to these tied string, and to the string tie the tomatoes - in principle should do the job, but we shall see. Advantages: doing it before the tomatoes are too tall means it was relatively non-destructive. Disadvantages: banking on the string lasting & being strong enough...

Tomatoes doing well, and enjoying the weather.
