It is 41.5 degrees in my green house this morning.....way way too cool for the tomatoes & cucumbers !!
The onions should be ready to harvest by now but are weeks behind in developement and so are taking up ALOT of space in there that is sceduled to hold more tomatoes, Ancho chilies.
I think the heat tape in the soil is helping alot by warming the soil to 80 degrees...but the plants above the soil have got to be totally confused !

Here comes the sun..and now the green house will warm to 90 in minutes..........my maters will be bi-polar !!!

CL save yer milk jugs, fill them with water and stack in the GH they will soak heat during the day and sink it at night.

LOL..........I have often wondered what we would do if it took 6 months to hatch chickens ?
Seems the big guy knew what he was doing when he made them hatch in 21 days...otherwise us humans would go nuts waiting!!!!!!!!!!

And chickens would go extinct.........

What it takes 21 days to hatch??? I thought it was only 3 weeks!!!

No room, and we be using the jugs fer da birdies water (with Corid)

There is 3 12 foot long by 2 1/2 feet wide raised beds in there, some with heat tape, that should heat sink enough..BUT the greenhouse is only 3 days old, so the soil has to warm, and it takes sun for that to happen............WHAT SUN ?
Once sunny day a week is not gonna do it.
