Well, today I finished extending the greenhouse by about 4 feet. I did a really quick job of it, and it still took a couple of hours. Next year I will consider constructing something more permanent. I only extended the bottom where the main is growing. I will have to extend the sides at some point next week to accomodate the side vines.
The main vine is about 6.5 feet long right now. I had to trim 2 vines about 2 feet long and a leaf (the second leaf that emerged a few weeks ago) close to the stem. The leaf was starting to look wilted and I thought it better to leave room for a new more productive one. The two vines were shooting from the stem and really crowded up the area. I want to be careful about how crowded I let this plant get, and I only want two other vines shooting from the stump, I already have these picked out. Pictures will come when I have the energy.
