Inside My New Green House!
Hey folks, I wanted to attach some veggie garden photos of the inside of my green house. Hope the attachment works.
My brother built this green house for me. At first I just wanted a simple box with a door and plastic attached around it, but... He thought something more elaborate would be better and more fun, lol. So he turned it into a sturdy structure with a hefty door and one-foot deep growing beds which we filled with soil. I tilled in a bit of aged/pasteurized steer manure, organic bone meal, and fish mulch. Hope that will do it some good. I'm growing several varieties of tomato (18 tomato plants in all), but plenty of other veggies and several herbs/spices too. Just got everything planted today (May 6th, 2013). So looking forward to (and hoping for) a great growing season!

Oh, and the big "mystery" tomato plant, the one with all the flowers sprouting.... It was a gift from my brother's mother-in-law, she is an avid veggie gardener. I asked her which breed it was and she said "beefsteak", so that's good! The one breed I wanted, but forgot to buy, lol. I cloned it too, pinched off a few suckers and started them in soil, so they are doing well and I will have multiples of that plant
