    My tomatoes have reached to the top now. We have even cut the tops on a few so to send the energy to the tom to ripen.

    We haven't gotten around to putting a door on the front end as of yet so the tarp has been doing well holding in heat on our cold days and evenings.

    I have only a few radishes that came up so I have decided to let them seed out.

    It's good to see photographs from you Petunia. I take it you now have space for them on your computer?

    Your greenhouse is looking great and your going to have some lovely fruit and veggies soon.

    thanks for your comment Eileen. But we haven't freed up any space yet. I just figured another way to get pictures on here. Its explained in my other post. With any luck we'll have toms yet.

    WOW Petunia! You have really done well there. You must be well chuffed. Just fantastic-looking veg and Nasturiums.

    Say, what is the "acorn" you showed. I do not recognize that one.

    Ach, the blurryness was no problem. Were you really moving the camera, or was the lens fogged? It'sa no matter I could see everything perfectly well.

    I am so delighted that you showed us the inside of your excellent poly tunnel. Thanks so much.

    I'm wondering about the "Acorn plant" too. Lovely photos, Petunia. You made me hungry now. :D

    It has been great to watch the progress with your greenhouse right from the very start petunia. I must say I am green with envy :) Everything looks so healthy, especially the toms. It has made me realise that maybe I should grow mine indoors next year.

    Fantastic! Amazing what a difference plants make to a green house. Are you planning next year yet?
    I didn't realize acorn squash were light colored when young (acorns are what we buy during the winter, but I have never grown them) :-D
