Hey, personally i would go with the proper insulation board.

In this case if you go for the cheap option then yeah its insulated but not as well as the kingspan.

Fixing the panels i would go down the lines of expandable foam can... Then use nails if desired to pin.

Make sure you have an air gap on the base add skids get it off the ground.

Maybe you should get a new hut :) BIIIIG hut hahahahaaaa

Just think of the amount of seeds you could pop mwhahahahahaaaa

Keep us all posted on this please.

Yeah a little like a shed floor. Suspended

I built my groom on a concrete base so PVA went on floor. Floor paint and then a plastic membrane before some normal underlay........

Oh man If the misses allowed it I would just build a large hut over the garden and just have one big shed. But we meet halfway.

I was just going to have a board underneath the tent so the tent will be resting on it. Is that OK? Or does it need something over the board before putting the tent on it? In all honesty I was just going to use probable double sided sticky tape to stick them together to create a box lol
Yeah that defo work... the tent will be ok to sit on internal floor face of the box.

I would just get that box off the ground onto long pads... smaller surface area in contact with floor. etc

But yeah it will be grand :)
