Re: Tomatoes
I have quite a ways to go before I have my 1st tomato
I'm planing on leaving quite a few plants in the greenhouse this year
I'm also going to keep the storms on the greenhouse longer
I want to keep the temp at nite over 50 earlier in the Spring
Hoping to get some tomatoes before August this year
I have bigger pots & will be letting the seedlings grow longer in the greenhouse
Eventually I want to set up some solar water panels to heat the greenhouse
That will give me an earlier start
As it is I am about 2 months ahead of where I used to be without the greenhouse
I've started using Miracle grow potting soil the past 2 years & the seedlings seem to be doing much better
I also picked up some trays to put the seedling trays in once they start growing
I also added peat moss to the greenhouse soil this year, and to the 10x14 garden in front of the greenhouse
I did not get any cold frames setup for this year, I need more sliding glass door panels
I lost 5 panels that I intended to use over the past 2 years to snow/ice & falling limbs
I do have some fertilizer Tomatoes & will be using that for the 1st time this year
Not sure its really needed down by the stream
The tomato plants down there already grow over 8' tall
