so its now may 29th 2009, lovely day outside temps in the el cheapo plastic greenhouse hit the 80's.
the tomatos (moneymaker) are gettinh huge leaves now the boost from the ferts worked and the nipping out shoots have started the MM skywards im going too top them at around 5 foot high.
peppers are loking ok'ish its my first time growing peppers, my best plant now has what looks like little green balls coming from the top. the top of the plant has split into two parts. so i will just water/feed and let them go about there own stuff.
the little gem lettuce are growing realy well in the growbag, i put three in only and maybe could have squeezed in more.
my dwarf french beans are so cool, i already have beans forming and most around 3-5 inch long, soon i can start too harvest them. i had three bean plants and also planted another two. i love my french beans in shepards pie and cottage pie.
shallots i have a little trouble with, some have died off and i am left with 3-4 good plants. so i planted up my seedling tray and a good 8 seeds i will grow them in the seedling tray and see if there is a noted difference.
i topped my cucumbers at around 1ft high i have around 8 flowers forming on the largest of the three plants. these sit under the potting shelves with the shallots and lettuce.
so i have a nice little gift for you all, i have taken some pictures from my phone and uploaded so you can see my elcheapo greenhouse and my mini veg plot. so what do you all think of my mini eden project. my garden is a north east facing. the pictures of just the greenhouse was taken at 16:30pm. the pictures of the veg were taken at 13:00pm. the sun hits the greenhouse from around 11am too 1900-20:00pm.
