Hi Robh, I have used parrafin a lot in the past . I does produce more condensation, same rate as the amount of paraffin you burn I believe, which isn`t good unless you have proper ventilation. the extra co2 produced is good however.
I hope your cheap parrifin you`ve sourced is of good quality. I used cheap stuff a few years ago and my heater went on fire. Parrifin over her is £7-£8 for 4 litres . I`m planning to have electricity installed soon.
Good luck with your new greenhouse.
