Since I had to move the greenhouse I put all the seedlings out to enjoy the sun.
While I was busy cleaning the side yard and clearing off the patio sweet husband was attaching the netting to the trellis frame.

Photo Below: The trellises are all done.
Greenhouse is moved and seedlings moved back in... except for the pumpkin, peppers, basil and cilantro. They will be planted in to bed 3 today.
Photo Below: Bed 3 planted. The empty squares will be planted in a few weeks with more basil, and a melon.
Photo Below: The peppers and pumpkin all tucked into their new home until it warms up a bit more.
Photo Below: Patio cleaned up. The greenhouse will come down April 14th once I'm done starting all my seeds for Spring and Summer planting.
Here are some random photos I took today...
Photo Below: The red norland potatoes seems to be very happy and getting bigger everyday.

Photo Below: Here is a photo of the celery I have been overwintering. They're huge and I have to find a new home for them. This bed is where the watermelon, corn and cucumbers are going. I might have to move them into pots.
Photo Below: The garlic is coming up!
Tomorrow the tomatoes will be planted out in bed one.

I like those portable greenhouses. The weather's breaking here, a little bit, and I'll be able to do some things outside pretty soon. It will be a good three months before I can catch up with you.
ReplyDeleteThe peppers look great. How long ago did you start them.
Hi Cheryl,
ReplyDeleteI started the peppers on Dec 29th. My first sprout was on Jan 8th.
I'm hoping the portable greenhouse will work out and I don't lose any peppers. This could prove to be way to early to plant out... even though the Framers Almanac says I can plant out for my area. The only other thing that could be a big problem is my beds are not getting full sun just yet. The rows the peppers are planted in don't get any sun until 11:45 as of now. That will change a bit every day until the sun is closer to it's highest point in the sky . I’ll just hope for the best and will take lots of notes for next season. :-)

Wow - loving all the stuff you have in your bed already. I sure wish it would get a little warmer here - I'm "green" with envy! ;^)
ReplyDeleteI don't know if I'd pot the celery - they're a bog plant and like lots of water. Seems to me that pots dry out quickly so I'd make sure you have it on a drip line if you do pot it. I'm sure you know all that already but I wanted to mention it just in case. =)
Hi Jenn,
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better. No I didn't know that about the celery, thanks :-)
I have some time to figure it out before the cucumbers and watermelon go into that bed.

Your transplants look great! Oh, the joy of starting out with a new bed. Everything looks so neat and tidy! Keep up the good work. :-)

Thanks EG. I planted out the tomatoes today. I'll be blogging about todays to do list in just a bit.

Last year I planted my peppers too early. They were slow growing and I was worried that they were stunted. I ended up buying a four-pack just for insurance. I can't remember when, but they did kick in and I still got lots of peppers. I'm sure yours will do fine.
ReplyDeleteThanks Cheryl. I think you're right and they will be just fine. They seemed very happy today in the sun. I put the cover back on earlier in the day while the sun was still shining on the bed to collect some heat inside the small greenhouse.
