Today , back in the greenhouse and this side makes me feel happy .
I notice a couple of the Epiphyllums have buds . This makes me feel happy .
No time for happiness , back to the task at hand !
Groan and to add to the misery my windchime fell down with such a dreadful clatter and is now all tangled .
I couldn't take anymore ! I decided to take the net down and let in more light . This could be a bit risky for the shade loving plants on the left hand side of the greenhouse . I will monitor the situation closely over the next few days .
Cucumber seedlings are up ! I,ve not grown this one before . I usually buy Femspot or Marketmore . I couldn't find them so we are trying this one instead . It's a variety called " Burpless Tasty Cucumber " Not comfortable with the name , but they are supposed to be reliable and have good flavour .
I pricked them out and potted them up and after doing my back in again lifting that table down , I placed them in a couple of polystyrene boxes ....just in case we should get any more cold nights , this should keep them cosy and warm .
I re-potted some of the Tomato plants and gave them a drink in the water-but pool .
I put the tomato plants onto the tray on that table , I had just lifted down .I still have some others to re-pot in the shed . I will just bring these on for a bit and in the meantime have a think about how to fix up the rigging for them . They will need re-potting again . They won't be as good as those grown in a polytunnel but I usually get enough to keep my family happy .
The Sweet Peppers are still not up . Me and them , we're not getting along !
I won't give up on them just yet though .
I love your working greenhouse, it looks much like mine, never enough space at this time of year.
