welcome and yes this is the right place to find out things on how to grow carnivorous plants...there are even some people here who could tell you exactly step by step how to raise particular carnivorous plants but other kinds of plants and flowers that arent carnivorous you might not be able to get that good of help here...but this is still an awesome forum place!!!!!!!!!

Wow Aidan, that looks amazing! The photo of your polytunnel is truly an inspiration, as to what can be grown in a polytunnel. I've only recently got a polytunnel and am only beginnining to learn all about the plant and flower growing process. I planted my first fowers yesterday in pots and trays. I have a lot of space in the polytunnel and was wondering the best way to utilise it. I was going to plant flowers in the ground, but then decided that planting them in pots and hanging baskets would be the best thing to do - as I want to sell everything I grow. Do you plant all your flowers and plants direct into pots, hanging baskets and trays? Looking at your polytunnel Aidan, it would be brilliant to get some advice from you, if possible...as I said, I'm only starting out and trying to do things properly...so everything will actually grow! A step by step guide would be incredible!!

All the plants are carnivorous (except one... spot the pineapple) and all are growing in pots in large water trays. Large lagoons either side of the central path would be the ideal solution, but impractical as the tunnel is sited on a slope.

This is an intro thread and I think it has been hijacked enough.
