Each year re-commissioning the Greenhouse is a looked forward to event which is happening right now.
It begins by removing all the horizontal and vertical trellis giving me access to all the interior surfaces which are hand washed with a sponge and a bucket of hot soapy water. The next day (today) i replaced the trellis’s and began prepping the beds and floor; which involves raking, watering and burning all surfaces, twice!
This time of year everything’s pretty dry down 4/5 inches so the watering part is important to achieve good saturation before planting.
The Toyo is running, set at 56F and tomorrow i’ll begin yarding those 15 10/20 trays out of the house. They will be set up on makeshift saw-horse benches until time to go out in the garden. This part’s a crap shoot every year; id like the starts that go out later to go out quicker sometimes. Typically most of them will be up-potted again before springs really here.
Those things that stay in the greenhouse will get planted into they’re beds shortly and be off and running. The goal has always been “to have a handful of green beans by Mothers day”.
