All of this material has to be moved from the glasshouse and deposited in bins and on pallets. This then allows us to move on to the next stage of cleaning which will see us washing down the interior of the glasshouse, flushing and cleaning all the irrigation systems, and the 1001 other maintenance tasks that we have to perform. And if you think we are putting in some hard work, spare a thought for those commercial growers who are doing the same thing across several hectares of production area.
