Now for the teckies!
Greenhouse is
27" wide (door side)
17" deep
61" high to the peak
41" to the top shelf
Seeds were planted on Mar 17 in the afternoon and the Auxiliary heat was applied keeping the pellets between 64 and 74 degrees F. Temp was dependent on the dimmer setting and ambient temp. Our cave stays a relative cool 58 to 68 this time of year. The top was put on and the peat pots kept watered with chlorine free drinking water. The top was removed 3 days ago to accommodate the growth of the squash plants.
Seed tray was placed in greenhouse and dimmer adjusted to give a pellet temp. of about 72 +/- 3 degrees.
Order of planting was:
top left 4 pellets/3 seeds to a pellet
tomato Spears Tennessee Green
next row down
Mortgage Lifter Pink
Cherokee Purple
Kentucky Beefsteak
Thia White Striped Eggplant
Amish Paste
top row pellets 5-8 and rows down
Morning Sun
White Queen
Brandywine
Sweet Banana Peppers
Yellow straight neck early squash
Okra
All seeds are from Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds, Mansfield MO. www.rareseeds.com with the exception of the last 3, peppers and squash are from wally world and the okra was courtesy our landlords garden! LOL
The Heirloom seeds came as a gift from Amy's Garden and she is a great friend!
I plan on adding a grow light to the top of the house next week (after pay day lol) and to start moving some of the plants to bigger pots as required.
