Gosh everything has come on so much since you last showed us your photographs Petunia. Everything looks so healthy and the rows are very neat too. Can't wait for the next set of piccies when everything has ripened. :-D
What an amazing greenhouse you have Petunias! I love it! The only other time I have seen veggies growing like that is at the Epcot Center when I visited Disney this last spring. What amazes me the most is how the plants look like they are only growing in sand, like yours do. What do you feed them? What kind of soil do you use? How did you know how to grow them like that? I am full of questions because I would like to grow my veggies inside a protected area too.
Thanks for the coments. I can't wait till atleast the toms ripen then we can have those BLTs and may even be able to can a few jars too. Chelsea, All by trial and error. A few years ago we did good on the toms and we canned quite alot. Now last year, we didn't get hardly anything. This year it looks to be good again. I've also have taken the advice of a few stew helpers on here and have rototilled in rabbit manuer in with the sand. I have given my toms some epsom salts to hold their flower and produce fruit and once a week I also fertilize them. This morning I went around each plant, weeded and shook them to pollenate them. Everything this year seems to be working. However, our corn is tossling but doesn't seem to getting any corn on them, not sure what thats all about. Thanks for the comments, I'll be happy to answer any more questions if you have any.
--Wow Petunia, That poly tunnel is looking very good and so is the stuff growing inside it. You just HAVE to be glad that you guys put that thing up, aren't you. Please do keep on showing update fotos of your harvests and plant developments. Well donr, you!
Great veggie growing Petuna.I never thought of raising a garden in mine.I might try to extend mine .You really have done a great job.
This is awesome. I have never seen a greenhouse with such neat and tidy rows. Everything looks great.
I'm still awestruck by all that growing space you've got there. The plants seem to love it, and no wonder either, with all the love and care they're getting.
Oh Petunia, what a transformation. I am green with envy at all your plants. Your large greenhouse sure has been a resounding success. Congratulations
Many thanks for the comments. Tomatoes seem to be coming on like gangbusters. Should be a good year for them.
So jealous of your large polytunnel greenhouse. I would LOVE one on my allotment to grow my toms and cucumbers, peppers and melons in. And it is so neat and tidy and well organised. yum, those first ripe toms are always the best.
