The root vegetable bed has now been fully planted with carrots, onions and potatoes.

There has been a shade cloth system added to the beds built from PVC pipe and light weight shade cloth (14%). One long piece of PVC is connected to the long end so it can be rolled up, or rolled down and secured (we get lots of wind). We will see how this holds up through the winter (but I have high hopes)!

Indoors I added some green by planting one of the boxes with jalapeño and banana pepper (because our sprouts will take some time). What is a greenhouse without some green? We have also planted a grow bag with some white potatoes. I am curious to see how the garden bed turns out versus the grow bag!

We used seed potatoes, no cutting. The grow bag potatoes had chitted, but some of the ones in the bed had not. This is the first time I have attempted potatoes, so excitement abounds.

And now we wait.
