Nice photos TeeGee. It all looks great
Thanks!
but where are the weeds and brown spotty leaves Smiley ?
::)Now you don't expect me to photograph the grotty bits do you? 8)
I will say this and that is; the farmer that I get my muck from certainly doesn't use that dodgy weedkiller that has been discussed recently here on A4A.
Every where I have mucked and don't normally weed e.g. potatoes, is knee high in weeds this year.
Must have a word with him this backend when I get my next load. >:(
why do you grow french beans 'under glass'? I don't think I've seen that before.
Bit of a story attached to that one.
Two years ago I was judging some allotments and I saw that one of the tenants growing his 'Cobra' this way. He gave me a handful for my dinner plate and they were gorgeous.
The following year I bought this variety and like you I thought I would grow them outdoors. I didn't have much success but then again last year was a bad year all round.
So this year I thought I would try them in the tunnel, this time with some success.
It is my opinion if I still showed veg, I would clear the boards with these.
Next year I might have another go at outdoors with a few under cover for insurance.
How big is your greenhouse Teegee
This is my set up;
http://www.thegardenersalmanac.co.uk/Data/My%20set%20up/My%20Set%20up.htmplus I have an 8ft x 4ft section of the site communal tunnel which was erected to encourage 'disabled' gardeners but none ever took up the offer, so a few of us share it to keep it in working order.
Then if a disabled gardener/s comes along then we will vacate it.
