Oh boy, here we go again.
I joined this lovely forum back in 2018, been a lurker much longer though. At that time I was a student living in a small apartment, trying to learn all I could about indoor growing. Mostly because I didn't have outdoor space, and when I had a hobby that demanded I grew something, I had to get creative.
I loved the control of growing indoor, and trying to create optimal growing conditions for the plants.
However, late last year I bought my first house with a garden, and fortunately I got a greenhouse as a birthday present from my girlfriend and friends.
So my dream of growing plants in a greenhouse is finally coming true!
Unfortunately this isn't from my garden, this is the picture from the website![Icon Lol :lol: :lol:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
This is my process so far
A picture from late January, without snow! I still need lots of work before the greenhouse is ready. I need to dig out the dirt and replace it with gravel before I lay some flagstones. This part of the garden is faced in the north/south direction so I think it will be perfect.
Luckily I have lots of people to help me, so I have no doubt that the greenhouse will be ready before mid May, which is the usual time to transplant plants into the greenhouse in my country.
In my last glog I experimented with autopots, and I liked them so much that I have bought additional autopots for the greenhouse, and a big 225L (59.5gallons) water reservoir.
I also experimented with diffrent kinds of fertilizer over the years, mostly kinds that where designed for hydroponics or coco choir. This year I will try soil so I had to find a new source for fertilizers. I went with a danish product called 'Hornum GΓΈdning koncentrat'. Its a fertilizer made in the national research station for professional use, and as a total newbie in a greenhouse environment its a match made in heaven![Angel :halo: :halo:](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/angel.gif)
I am growing some of the same plants as last year, but with a change in vendor. Also some new varieties.
Besides peppers I am also growing some cucumbers, tomatoes and a single Pineapple cherry plant.
Its been really hard to settle on the growlist above, I know you all know the struggle. So there might be a slight last minute change![Icon Razz :P :P](/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
The seeds will properly hit the dirt in the next few days.
Hope you will enjoy this journey with me![Crossed fingers :fingers_crossed: π€](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f91e.png)
