I can't believe the fruits you've got in there already! You're right about the bug-free zone creating some picture perfect plants alright. Loved your video- your enthusiasm is contagious!
|
Amazing! I keep thinking that if I worked a little harder I could have a nicer/more productive garden and looking at your pictures (and others here) gives me the motivation. I don't have a green house but I can see there is a lot of work that goes into the results you're getting. Very nice!

Wow, how amazing to be able to grow in the wintertime and get warm weather crops all year round. Everything looks so beautiful and healthy.
|
Job well done, I enjoy your videos as well.....keep it up!
|
Wow! What beautiful plants, and a beautiful greenhouse. I can't believe you already have cucumbers and tomatoes! Nice work!
Taryn :D |
Nice size for DIY! Is the cover one layer of good quality poly?
|
So beautiful, both the greenhouses and the fruits. It is amazing what you have done! Having fresh fruits in winter, wow!
Thank you so much for sharing the photos. I will be watching this thread closely and hoping to see ripe tomatoes very soon :) Tatiana |
Thanks folks. I put a lot of work into this, and its paying off. Trying to keep it warm thru the winter is quite a task, but it can be done.
Kath, I try to have fun with it. Video making was a new deal for me, but I feel like I've gotten better at it. I still have a ways to go, but I'll keep trying. ;-) Stromato, it's double poly with the inflation blower. I have the IR/AC film on the inside, and regular GH 6 mil on the outside. This is what it looks like now. I've never done raised beds before, but they seem to be working out quite well. The Hastings Prolific corn is 2 foot tall. The Fortex pole beans have made the 9 foot run to the purlin. The cukes are climbing nicely. The squash and zuke are looking great. And I might make a mater or 2. :D [IMG]http://i1022.photobucket.com/albums/af345/mhpgardener/DSCF1621.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1022.photobucket.com/albums/af345/mhpgardener/DSCF1625.jpg[/IMG] |
I can't see what you use to hold up your cukes and tomatoes on my kindle. Is it stakes and trellising? Very nice!
|
Thanks. I use polypropylene bailing twine and trellis clips to string up tomatoes and cukes. They are tied to to the purlins. I tried just wrapping the string on the tomatoes and didn't like it. The clips are much faster and easier on the plant, or so it seems. I'll wrap the cukes occasionally, and then put a clip to keep them from sliding down under the weight of fruit.

Nice work! You have a great setup and a beautiful garden! Loved the video! Nicely done!

Absolutely beautiful! You have done an amazing job. Wont be long before you have ripe fruit off your mater plants. Seeing the corn growing in your GH this time of year is a stunning sight..
I had Armenian cukes growing and strung up in my Gh, in 2010 and it was a beautiful site to see them grow and hang down, similar to yours.. I will keep following your post to look for more updates. Ginny |
Really enjoyed the walk through your greenhouse. It's beautiful!
