Pictures of different vegetables grown please

[caseylee]

Hello there
I am planning the layout of my greenhouses at the moment, and I am a novice at what the veg looks like when it grows.  I would love some pic if possible on how the following look so I can do the spacing right.
Aubergines
tomatoes ( large and small)
cucumbers
courgettes
gherkins

and anything else you recommend for a greenhouse or if these can be grown outside please let me know.
Thank you
Linda

I grew my cukes (marketmore) in Asda black buckets outside last year. They were placed up the steps, using the railing to tie in the support canes. Black Beauty courgettes were also grown outside in Asda black buckets. They all did very well.
This pic shows the size of some of my last year's tomato plants on May 25th

That's about the stage mine got to before the blight hit. Hopefully it'll be better this year!

Gherkins outside, depends on the variety of salad  cuke wether  in or out, aubergines inside, tomatoes depends on the variety, courgettes and  squash outside..Peppers in if you are growing them, melons in, sweet potatoes in,Okra in XX Jeannine

[caseylee]

I have three types of cucumber, white one, bush champion, cystal lemon would you say in or out for these ones
on the courgettes I have tondo, zucchni and jemmer F1, are these all ok to go outside

[Jeannine]

All the courgettes outside definatly. white cukes in, crystal lemon might go wither way depending on where you are, I would put in here in Hull, the bush champion only grows 2 feet high and is designed for pots but I would say out XX Jeannine

Caseylee - what space do you have?

Lauren - with heat?

[caseylee]

I have a full size allotment, and at home I have 6 by 8 greenhouse with riased beds in a u shape.  I just wnt to utilize the greenhouse the best I can.

Lauren - with heat?

No heat Tim, just probably heat from the manure

[tim]

I was just writing this when yoursa came in!

"What I meant, Lauren, was do you grow them on with heat. Obviously not - because they are outside the 'house there! Mine would only be 8" high by that time, & then into a cold 'house."

caseylee - the 'house is mainly going to give you some earlier & later fruit to supplement your outdoor crops. You will be a bit warmer than us, so Aubs could be outside - with some protection. No point in showing you how we use our 'houses - we have more room to play with.

Like Tim I have plenty of space to play with but you are welcome to have a look at how I fill my greenhouses. (They are at the end of this slide show)

I have a heated greenhouse at home which I only use as a propagating area. In summer there is usually very little in it, perhaps a few chillis or some plants I am experimenting with as seen here; http://tinyurl.com/3ca7gw
