Random thoughts about my gardening and beekeeping experiences in Northern California's El Dorado County.

redneck hothouse
my seed guy keith needed to clear out some plants to make room for the next round. still being a bit cool in the garage, i felt it would be necessary to provide some added protection for the plants that would spend their nights in my cold garage.
so with the help of my eight year old, we geared up this redneck hothouse.
some scraps of cardboard, a couple towels and a nice warm halogen lamp, i was able to keep the temps in the hothouse in the 50's. this only lasted a few days before i had to transplant the tomatoes into 1 gallon pots.
the tomato growing season is looking better, every single day.
