Cleaning The Greenhouse Roof


The Dirty Roof
Still taking advantage of the unseasonably warm days this winter, a task usually completed during the warm summer days, is undertaken, the cleaning of the greenhouse roof. The inside is cleaned once the greenhouse has been emptied of all the plants, see blog entry 6th August 2015 'Adding A Little Bit Of Sparkle To The Greenhouse'.

Panes Of Dirty Glass
The outside of the roof has not been cleaned for a number of years and has got very dirty due to the large amount of dirt and dust from the neighbouring building site. Starting on the south facing side Danny cleans the panels of glass with a long pole brush dipped in a mix of warm water and washing up liquid followed by a wash down of cold water. By mid afternoon the south facing side is complete and, as if on cue, the sun comes out to dry the roof glass off. The north facing side will be cleaned early next year on another warm day should this warm spell continue.

South Facing Side Clean/North Facing Side Dirty
The newly cleaned glass now lets in more light, the environment in the greenhouse has just got warmer and brighter, perfect for growing plants.

  1. I liked the way you put together everything, there is certainly no need to go any further to look for any additional information. You mentioned each and everything that too with much of ease about Dirty Roof Bundaberg.
