    I bought one of these 35Euro plastic houses to bring on my tomatoes, sweet peppers and french beans. The plants are all doing really well, and the beans are growing like mad.
    I was told I need to take out the beans, as it will get too warm in the house for them. and I'm also wondering about the sweet peppers, should I leave them in?

    I also have pumpking under my growin tunnel, and it's growing nicely - was told to leave it there as it might be too cold for them unprotected?

    I'm a total novice, but everything I've planted is coming on nicely, have been eating my own lettuce and am delighted!

    Yes, take out the french beans, they are hardy enough to live in the garden. The peppers will be better off in the greenhouse, keep an eye out for aphids though.

    Many thanks! Yes, have squashed a few aphids already, going to spray with garlic/soap water...
