Cory has some questions on the greenhouse tomato video we post .
Here ’s the video again :
David , that ’s a unspoiled video serviceman thanks for that . A effective commixture of humour and info .
Ok i have 2 doubt if you do n’t heed .
1 ) As I ’m watching I see the nursery side windows are open , assuming to keep it cool in this heat . So how do you protect from the bugs with the windows open ? Is there a screen I ca n’t see ?
2 ) a greenhouse your size is just not in my budget for now . However , I plan to build a greenhouse to kick upstairs my deteriorating Amazon greenhouse . So do you think potted tomatoes in the greenhouse are deserving my while or should I plan to establish them directly in the ground inside my greenhouse like you did ?
give thanks you buddy . Been busy on the homestead so I have n’t been commenting as much but I still read your post when I find some time in between everything .
The air potatoes and true yams are take over the area I set them in . It ’s so awful . masses think I ’m wild now .
Protecting from the Bugs
No , there are no projection screen . We just plant in the earth and opened the sides … and the bugs are leaving them alone . I have no approximation why . We do n’t spray anything or protect them in any room .
Potted Greenhouse Tomatoes?
Generally . plants do well with lots of root space .
I did an experiment this class . Rachel planted her love apple in the ground , and I planted a couple of other unity in 30 - gallon grow bags .
Hers are definitely more rich . This is n’t a complete experimentation , though , as I think I planted mine a twain of weeks after she plant hers , so they may have been more root - bound from the cell trays in which they were planted – however , it ’s a data stop . The tomato in grow bags also had in effect potting soil , which they should have liked .
Who knows ? It ’s probably worth more experiment .
Honestly , I do n’t think it ’s worth progress a glasshouse to grow tomatoes unless :
We built and paid for our glasshouse via our nursery business , so the tomatoes were just an extra .
However , if you DO build a greenhouse , it is very helpful for set forth transplants in spring and maintain propagative cloth going for the next year . We keep various tropic putting green and crops in ours through wintertime which would cash in one’s chips outside , which let us to plant them out again in spring after all danger of frost .
The greenhouse has also in spades given us a destiny more transplants we can pop into the Grocery Row Gardens , like peppers , cassava , sweet potatoes , etc .
If you have the budget and you like gardening , a greenhouse can make mother wit .
But just to keep a few Lycopersicon esculentum plants alive and well-chosen ? Probably not .
Finally , good work on the yams .
And “ People think I ’m crazy now . ”
If you are watch my channel , you were already crazy . They can justseeit now .
