Shoots and leaves...
The whims and woes, highs and lows, of trying to grow fruit and veg in Nordic latitudes.
When I opened the polytunnel this morning it was a whopping 50 centigrade inside and raining! Yes, raining inside the tunnel. I had soaked the squashes the previous evening and then pulled the curtains across the front of the tunnel. As the temperatures rose this morning, so did the evaporation. When I opened the curtains and the temperature suddenly dropped, I guess we got some condensation...
I am now leaving the curtain open for a few days. Although the nighttime temperature drops, the minimum inside the tunnel is about the same (though probably not for as long). I picked some cucumbers and some rocket.
