The green house has been up for a little over a week. The first 200 plus tomatoes were planted last week. The green house tomatoes are a mix of sub arctic plenty and an early producing Italian variety. These are both a traditional red beefsteak varieties. The beds were prepared using the double dug method. The soil in each bed was enriched with a mixture of composted saw dust and a small portion of pearlite. We will be installing irrigation as well as several hundred additional tomatoes this week and are hopeful of a June 1st harvest date.
