The Greenhouse.

I’ve had a greenhouse for a long time. I thought I’d use it, but I never have. My husband grew plants in containers in there, but I guess I never got enthused about it and when the RA got worse, I abandoned all hope of using it. This summer, I decided to change that. 

I’m growing tomatoes (2 Big Boy and 1 cherry), peppers, bush beans (although some are coming up weird), two types of lettuce, two types of kale, zucchini, cucumbers, basil, parsley, strawberries, and blueberries. Some stuff I’m growing from seed, some were starts.

I have to say, I’m enjoying myself. I used to love gardening. However, I stopped when the deer and the rock chucks moved in. They destroyed everything. The greenhouse was supposed to be the alternative. Problem is, if it all turns out well, I know I’m going to want a bigger one.

I’m using a really cool fertilizer called Tomato’s Alive. It’s from the Garden’s Alive folks at www.gardensalive.com. They have all kinds of other fertilizers as well and I just ordered some of their Vegetables Alive and Herbs Alive for my other plants. Tomato’s Alive is the best tomato fertilizer I have ever used. They have organic pest control products that work great and are safe to use as well. And they have my favorite baby Bok Choy seeds. I grow bok choy in a hydroponic set up that works great. It’s awesome.

And now for the pictures:
