Basil in the Autopot...

So I have a plan:

• Tomatoes in the NFT, in the house, and in grow bags in the greenhouse.
• Pepper plants in the Solargrow in the greenhouse.
• Basil in the Autopot in the greenhouse.

Yesterday, May 13th, I set up the Basil in the Autopot. The instructions recommend combining soil and perlite so replanted the basil again today, increasing the amount of perlite.

Tomatoes look happy in the greenhouse but I think the peppers are finding the evenings a little cold. Some of them are looking a bit sad first thing in the morning. They perk up during the day so hopefully they will be OK.

Yesterday, I ordered a thermometer so that will help tell me more about what is happening in the greenhouse.

All good - all exciting. :-)

Greenhouse is up!

It took a while but the greenhouse is up. It looks great and a picture will follow soon. I took a bit of time off work last Monday and with the help of the guy from Quality Buildings, we got the whole thing finished. Chris Pepper helped the previous weekend and finally it has plants growing in it and it looks great. All very exciting!
