Tomatoes harvest has begun

Many harvests from a single potato plant

I just acquired an idea from havenyt about the pot assembly that can be used to harvest potatoes many times from a single plant. Here is my version of double pot by using black builder buckets.

Step 1:

You need two buckets of same size so that they can be stacked together. By using a power saw cut the first bucket as shown in the pictures. so the sides becomes open. This will allow the potatoes to be harvested.

Step 2:

Drill some holes in the base of the same first bucket. place this bucket then in the second bucket and the assembly is done.

Step 3: fill the bucket with compost and sow your potatoes in it, or if you have pre-sown potato plant that is ready to replant.. put that in the center of bucket and fill the bucket all the way up...

Step 4: Water the plants well and then wait. please check with your potato variety to estimate the harvesting time.

Step 5: If you want to check that if there are some potatoes ready then lift the first bucket up by firmly holding the second bucket. Harvest any potatoes that are ready and leave others. The plant will hopefully set new potatoes also..

New Green House has born

Finally I managed to complete my GH few days back and its looking wonderfull

Birth of a new Green House

Couple of weeks back, I grabbed a nice offer for a green house and now its time to assemble it.. I waited the whole week for the windy weather to calm down...The frame is erected and now next task is to lift the frame and place it over the base of the GH and then install the door and the glass to finish it off...Some plants watched me assembling it and they are already dreaming to be the first one to get in there. :)
