Over the moon with my new greenhouse
After the plastic one blew away I came round to the idea that my cucumbers & melons would be outside but too my delight I got offered a greenhouse. The Saturday we went to look at it and for Hubby to decide how it would come apart it was raining on & off. We went back after lunch and made a start my taking the panes of glass out and it started raining big time and we all got soaking wet. Hubby carried on and I left with the boys. Sunday was a another fun day as we had to lift the greenhouse frame over a brick wall about 5 foot high. Hubby said to his older lad we have to carry this frame through our town to the allotment "oh no i'm not he said!" Lucky for him a guy with a pick up was just in the same road and we asked for his help. And here is my pride and joy .......................
I repotted my melons today that will go in the greenhouse canteloupe, watermelon & honeydew as they were slowly dying at this rate they would get in the greenhouse at all. I'm down to one telegraph cucumber as 3 other have died or been eaten. About 3 gerkins left from 7 and 2 crystal apple/lemon cues. I've started off some more cystal apple & some white wonder so I might get some cucumber this year. Going to put some tomatoes in the greenhouse and I'm hoping next year I can have tomatoes earlier as I had to buy shop ones today with no taste.
Our harvest this week included some spinach and broad beans.
