Small Greenhouses for Baby Greens and Lettuce

Posted Tuesday, April 14, 2015, by Food Rising Staff | Read Comments

"This is the set up that my son and I put together yesterday. I want to add another box for tomatoes. The greenhouses are fragile and I had them against a fence where they were sheltered from the wind but they got very little light. Even so the lettuce and baby greens had sprouted. I hope they will grow faster with this arrangement, if the greenhouses hold up.

The past week we have had torrential rain, hail and high winds. The greenhouses have stayed put thru all the weather conditions. My son came over and took the following pictures. I decided to place the bucket for the lettuce and greens on the bench because I had to use a tarp to cover them from the high wind. I will monitor the water level to make sure they do not overfill. I hope these pictures will be helpful to you. "
