Summer greenhouses are busy as ever
Tuesday 27 Jul 2010 - 00:00:00
The summer is a busy time in the
greenhouse
with all the plant care, feeding and watering as well as pest control, harvesting and starting propagating plants for next year.
Greenhouses
at this time of year will usually be used for a crop of greenhouse tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers and maybe a melon plant. The
greenhouse
should already have whitewash sun protection to avoid plant scorching and keep down solar gain so that the temperature can be maintained. Plants in the
greenhouse
require daily watering and in hot weather spells it is advisable to wet the floors so the cooling effect from evaporation can be achieved. Jobs in the greenhouse right now include hanging up pest traps for white fly and green fly, taking out side shoots on tomato plants and taking cuttings of tender perennials. Don’t forget to harvest crops in peak condition and put surplus stocks in the freezer or use them for swaps with other keen growers. © Copyright
