November 21 2009
















I think I am the only greenhouse on Long Island that is growing without heat.





I have not confirmed that, but it is what my shocked neighbor told me while we were having coffee the other day. I'm happy with the results given the situation. The baby leaf spinach is yummy, so is the cilantro, lettuce, parsley and basil. I am happy to see a 6" squash appear at the 7 week mark from seed. The beans and peppers are about 15-16" tall. The various tomato varieties are very healthy. After the roof blew apart, I thought I had lost a row of new seedlings, but today they are doing quite well with new growth. The only plants that have been lost are the ones eaten by the "critters" who frequent the property at night. The plants are now fed once per week with the various Jennifer's Landscape Vitamins blends.
