Growing under staging?
« on: January 27, 2014, 09:24 »
Hi

I've got staging (2x1 with gaps in between) along the whole length of my 54 ft PT as can be seen in the attached piccy.

Do you think I could grow in pots under the staging or would there not be enough light?  I was thinking peppers in pots

Any suggestions welcome. Perhaps peppers require lots of direct sunlight and another more shade loving veg would fare better...

I had a few under my greenhouse staging this year - they did crop - but not as well as the ones on top  ;)

possibly salad until it gets too hot. and pretty much anything that is not renowned for bolting, that you could do with a quick crop and / or harvest as baby vegetables.

i found my tunnel was ideal for growing root vegetables that i can pick as baby roots and salads, especially when you think you're going to have lul in produce between main harvest.

The tunnel is fantastic!!!  I just hope my horticultural skills are good enough to justify it.
