At the moment I am debating the wisdom of buying another greenhouse - same size as the other - to fit ove the end and make the house twice as big (i.e. a 16 by 6ft house). The greenhouse this year was great - almost every surface filled with plants getting some heat or growing from seedling to plant. the Lupins and the aquiligeas were doing great before i left 9see above). Also the tomatoes - yellow balconie (never had yellow tomatoes before - much nicer than I expected) and the two cheapie pepper ones I bought at end of season (1 bell pepper and 1 jalapano - 50p a plant each) did really well.
On the other hand, I'm only there for three months a year so Jiurie has to all most of the watering which I think she finds a pain, and the price - £469 - well you can buy a lot of tomatoes, peppers, chillis etc with £469. they won't be as fresh or as tasty but £469 is almost £10 a week for a year - even over 10 years it is £1 a week - we don't use that many tomatoes etc.
One the other other hand - £469 is the price of a decent camera and I think I would get more usage out of additional greenhouse space. But then I don't need a posh camera either.
Maybe next year - or lets see if we get a bonus for this year - HA! Forget that sonny boy.
