My first greenhouse....

Just moved to a house which has a greenhouse. :D

What shall I do first? I'm not the most natural green-fingered person, so I need something easy to start off growing. :o

I have been growing chillis for a few years. Hubby bought me one chilli plant, and I harvested all the seeds from the chillis and they've spawned a few generations of chilli plant now. I'm thinking they'll do well out there (normally they live in the kitchen windowsill).

    Tomatoes, you can't really fail with them. Cucumbers, aubergines and peppers are more tricky but worth a try...

    As above. Peppers, Tomatoes and cucumbers. If you have the room something like gooseberries?

    I have overwintered some chilli plants so hoping they all spring to life when it gets a touch warmer.
