Cucumbers, tomatoes and chillis
« on: May 13, 2009, 14:10 »
Hi,

I am currently growing cucumbers, tomatoes and chillis in 2 mini plastic greenhouses.
Any suggestions as to where to positions these crops, in direct sunlight, shade etc?

Also, I have a friend with a plastic greenhouse who opens the door of it all day, so it doesn't heat up too much. Is this a good idea?
Cheers
Steve

I leave my door open all of the time at this time of year as otherwise it gets too steamy and things damp off

Thanks for that.
Any idea if cucumbers like the sun or shade?
Cheers

Cucumbers, warm, humid, no direct sun.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
