Tomatoes, Peppers and Cucumbers in the greenhouse
I’ve just put the tomatoes, sweet peppers, chillies and cucumbers in their final positions in the greenhouse. As usual there are too many pots and not really enough space but I’m sure they will survive. Whether I’ll be able to get in to do the watering is another matter. It looks deceptively spacious at the moment but wait until everything starts to grow.
There are 14 tomatoes, 5 sweet peppers, 4 chilli peppers and 2 cucumbers. They are all in large pots with canes for support where necessary. One of the reasons I stopped growing bush tomatoes inside was lack of space as their foliage is much more bulky than cordons. I’ve also got my first flowers on the tomatoes - I do so love tomatoes!

Nothing beats the smell ( I love it) or the taste of a tomato taken straight from the plant; delicious!
My favourites at the moment are some cherry sized plum tomatoes that you can get in Waitrose, but I have yet to fond seed for them to grow myself.
They grow beautiful and look healthy
Hi easy .. I can well imagine that it can reach jungle proportions when they really get happy there .. there is nothing like home grown tomatoes .. I haven’t bought one from a store yet that tastes the same. It is going to be a feast for you this season !
I am jealous your tomatoes probably have at least a foot on the ones we have at the farm. I think we are due for greenhouses soon. Can’t wait to see an update in a month or so when the peppers and tomatoes are popping…. mmmm getting hungry!
