Fantastic, a greenhouse gives one back so much pleasure, it is like taking a trip to a far island and being all alone.
I am glad you like the threads.
I didn’t trim my Thompson Seedless grapes and let them grow to about 30 or 40 foot, stung a support about 2 foot down from the ceiling of the greenhouse, it worked, they broke the sun in the summer and the leaves dropped in time to let the winter sun in.
I do not think we lost any in the sizes, they were normal and I had to use my laundry basket when it was time to pick them.
Everything grows better in the greenhouse, LOL, if one goes to the effort to help them be pollinated, using a paint brush.
I don’t remember when I started using a pressure cooker, maybe 50 years ago, I agree they are wonderful for quick cooking or any tasty meal.
They will also save a lot of the cost of the regular cooking stoves, with the low fire they require to do their job.
Yes, it does. Most of what I'm growing is self pollinating, except for the tomatoes which are "indeterminate" and need a little help. A good shake of the entire plant every day usually does the trick, or some people use old electric toothbrushes to vibrate the blossoms. Yesterday was near 70F here and I opened the door of the greenhouse for a few hours. Later in the day when I went to close it up, I noticed quite a few honeybees inside working their magic. I hadn't checked my hives in a while for activity since it's been so cold here this winter. That's now on today's agenda.
