peach blossoms in the greenhouse |
We have a ton of stuff filling up the greenhouse and two wagons outside filled with onions, beets, kohlrabi, broccoli, cabbage, and parsley. That's how we get plants ready for the field...
We set them out on wagon to "toughen up"... if you will. Basically to get used to wind, rain, and a little less water. But if the weather is going to be too bad we can still bring them inside. Safety first.

Inside the greenhouse not only do I have plants but I have buckets of peach blossoms that I've been "forcing" for a treat at an upcoming Farmers' Market.
I've had quite a few people ask what do you do with them?
Well...you put them in a vase on your table and soak up the delicate beauty of deep red branches with little pink flowers. They last about 7 days after they start opening.

Looking great Rose! That pic of kohlrabi transplants is awesome. How's your celery? Do you bring in the wagons in at night when you are first hardening seedlings off? Small rosemary plants ARE cute, like a mini Christmas tree farm. Your greenhouse must be the best oasis in the early spring, before planting seedlings out, I absolutely love the smell of greenhouses packed with plants. Another great post, keeps the pics coming, I love to see all the steps in the growing process. Thank you. I trust the chics are well, they are the best when theyre small.
