Hi Adam, A very enjoyable video. Your Dad is a great all round gardener. I say this every year, to have a successful crop of different fruits all growing in the same greenhouse is quite an achievement. They all need separate atmospheric conditions and your Dad has overcome this hurdle with seemingly ease! I think the leaf curl on the tomatoes may be due to the compost being too dry at some stage. Probably the cucumber plant lacked enough humidity. The vegetable plots looking good as well. Considering the summer we have had, not much to grumble about!

Hi Robert, he is a great all round gardener and certainly manages to get a lot of fruit and veg from that greenhouse. The summer has been a bit of a let down this year hasn't it and judging by todays temperature autumn is upon us and then it's the slow decent into winter. Role on spring 2025

Just a suggestion... Build a trellis out of 6x6 inch stiff cattle fence. Grow your watermelons over that for a higher yield. Lettice grows well under it.

Aah, there you are Randy. I hope things are well for you my friend. How has the season been for you so far, Thanks for the melon tip, I think the main problem we have is that it's too cool over here - we don't get the heat to really cut loose on the melons.

@@AllotmentGrowHow disastrous here. Over two months with Temps over 90F +. That was coupled with 3 inches of rain during that time. I gave up @ 1/2 way through it all. 68F is all you need for Mellons..
