In Vermont it has been a great spring! Here is one of 3 patches I am doing 2008. This greenhouse has been made from birch and some wire I got at a dollar store! The poles are sunk into the ground, I will add plastic next.

Real impressed with Patch #1. not a bit of stunted growth. This is the 1st time in 4 years I think I have the chance to grow a good sized AG. The Hamlen's patch was so depleated that I had to be aggressive with all my fertz. I think there is a major prob there, Ca, is missing alot of blossom blow outs!

Here is Rauja, these days at age 12 she has retired from being "Patch Dawg". She still attacks and ends the life of many snkes and mice, just not as much time is spent doing it!!!
