Rooftop Greenhouse Grow Amsterdam

Why are the strawberries useless? I love strawberries!!!

I have no idea....this "STRAWBERRY" plant is useless. I am literally getting one decent strawberry growing on it every now and then. I also love strawberries, so it's pissin me right off. The other strawberry plant had white fly and aphid as well so I am having 0point0 luck with them this year.

All of mine came with fruit and something ate those. Not another flower since then. They are vegging great though

oddly enough mine aren't flowering either. the one i found buried in the undergrowth in a pot I planted in the patch that gets all day sun and is flowering nicely. the one i bought refuses to flower and is barely growing.

monsanto don't breed strawberries do they?!?

You want flowers? That will be extra

I think I'll be ditching mine end of season if they don't smarten their ideas up! Can't have loose canons in the garden.

On another breeding note, baby was showing off and moving around at the midwifes...signs of things to come I guess! Nicely advanced they said for 18 plus weeks. All is good in da hood, or as the cloggies say, "alles zit er goed uit"

LEKKER!!!!! you given thought to dual nationality? I would. one thing i now wish i was half german half brit. wouldn't have done me nee favours at school but then being born in gemany didn't anyway haha

You can only have 1 european passport, and the little blighter will be getting either a Dutch one of a British one. I doubt we'll register ickle for a South African one, they are not too keen on giving out dual passports these days, especially when your baby is not born in the country.

Hauled out 2 more males from the cab....they were 2 more of the mystery plants that popped up in the greenhouse. Also stinky of sweet kush as well, with the same blue tinge to the leaves as the other male I have. I am calling Blue Pits on these. God knows, I must have missed a pollenated nug when trimming the last lot as these are all nigh on identical in looks and smell. After I make bubble the mulch gets thrown on the compost heap so that's all I can think of......

The clogs are trying to integrate people into their cloggy ways. If you guys were in NL now your Husband would be getting treated to examinations on his cloggyness (or perhaps he had to go through that!) A lot of things have gone a bit too cloggy for my liking. You have one side where everyone in Amsterdam just talks to you like a dumb tourist (unless you have a big floppy hair-do and are wearing brown brogues with your pink ralph lauren collar popped up with a white t-shirt underneath, then they will speak to you in Dutch). However, phone the tax people, a bank, or anything relating to actual living in Holland, and they all now refuse to speak in Engish. In fact the Tax people are not "allowed" to speak to you in English. It's like in the last few years there has been a big drive towards nationalism. I wonder if your friends cheese intake has increased over the years, and her taste buds have gone bland. My wifes Great Aunt thinks its terribly out there and riské, to have cheese and ham on your bread together! one shudders to think.

sweet blueberry boxes, i'm nabbing the design for a grow box nice work man

I may also be pinching the boxes idea

Some pics from todays sunny day!
puppies

This male is going to the compost I am afraid......

engineers dream dog

being watched over by Dog mom

and what would a day be without some beautiful azaleas


Table and chair sanded and varnished (Except for the legs of the table, still to do!)

Peace, DST

What are the boxes for? I thought maybe to keep raccoons or possums or birds out but i dont know how many dst would get in the green house so why do the boxy thingy?

I was thinking of taking the engineers dream dog out of the greehouse and building a box over it. Then perhaps go with some light deprivation to see if I can get it finished over the summer months, a box would make it easier to put a tarpaulin over I guess, plus could be designed to help with the heavy wind we get over here.....or I might just not bother and leave the bloody thing in the greenhouse, lol....

Fantastic stuff as always DST, busy time of year, so much going on at once with everything in full swing

All looks great, those azaleas are amazing.... I was picturing a smaller table for some reason,,, great work So what are you going to call the EDdog??? Architects best friend?
