I’m building a proper solid base for our new greenhouse! I’m making this from compacted hardcore with a wet mortar mix for the paving slabs. I’m using a 5:1 mix of sharp sand and cement. The paving slabs I’m using are 450 x 450mm and this is designed for a 8’ x 10’ greenhouse. This is a re-edit of an old video from a while ago with some extra information, moved over here as part of a general channel tidy-up. Greenhouse build to follow.
