I have the wire as well but have sliding windows to pull over if wet , they can be pulled full or part according to the conditions, i like the fresh air, and like the birds to see out
you get floorwhite from columbine, also harkers have it, i use the columbine, u brush it well into the floor so it dose not blow about. keeps the floor dry and smells good and looks good.
THE OLD TYPE LOFT USED TO BE OPEN TO ALL WEATHERS, NOWADAYS THEY ARE MORE CLOSED IN, WITH WINDOWS ETC, WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS ON THIS SUBJECT, DOES IT BETTER THE BIRDS ONE WAY OR ANOTHER. IS IT WIRE OR WINDOWS.
ANYTIME FROM MARCH ON AS LONG AS THE WEATHER IS OK, I HAVE A GREENHOUSE SO GET SOME EARLY, U COULD EVEN START THEN OFF INDOORS, EACH CLOVE GROWS EASY, IF U HAVE A BULB WHICH HAS BEEN LYING FOR A WHILE U WILL SEE THE CLOVES SPROUTING,
