2019.09.28: Start of the Fall Greenhouse Season

Greenhouse after planting first bins.

So with the traveling I’ve been doing lately, I haven’t had had a chance to really get a jump-start on the fall greenhouse. I really hoping to start a month ago in late August, but better late than never? Today I spent a bunch of time sweeping, cleaning, setting up some of the sub-irrigated bins I grow in. A bunch of the bins had dried out, so I re-wetted them and fluffed up the soil.

I mainly planted green beans (Rattlesnake, Blue Kentucky, and Dwarf Velour) and tomatoes (Patio Choice seeds and a cutting from my Better Boy), but also planted some basil, green onions, and peppers too. I’ll be planting more and bringing in plants from the outside, but this week it’s supposed to be up in the high 80s so not quiet yet!
