Shading Help

[Katiekins]

Hi, We have just moved house and are benefitting from a lovely and brand new greenhouse. We've grown a few bits in the past - hubby has a chilli fetish so even in our smallest gardens we have had a few pots (including on a balcony when we had no garden). So, we have made great use. The only problem is everything is scorching. There was some of the coolglass paint on shading obviously left from last year but it is a very sunny South facing garden.

So, I need to very quickly get my hands on some good shading very quickly before everything suffers. What is best, the paint on stuff or the fabric??

The paint on stuff I assume we just follow the instructions, but how on earth do we attached the fabric (bearing in mind its not our greenhouse so we can't damage it).

Many, Many Thanks.

I wouldn`t go for either Katie. It may sound daft, but use bubble insulation instead. The benefits are twofold, shading in the summer, insulation in the winter. Also easy to fit using Alliplugs.

As well as the bubble insulation I grow sweet peas up the outside of my greenhouse.
