I inherited eight raised beds and a large pile of double glazed windows when I took on my plot. With no way to get rid of these I have tried to utilise them on the plot.
Four of the raised beds are of a size that can be covered by a single glass unit. The soil in the raised beds is about 6 inches below the top edge.
Early and late season these can be used as flat topped cold frames. I even started my sweetcorn direct with the glazing unit covering bed. This worked tremendously well so I will deffo be keeping these units.
The ones I have spare are utilised by standing them vertically around my runner bean canes to keep the wind from battering them.
I would just utilise an existing bed and add glass when required Greenleaves, then your cold frame can be moved around the plot.
