this is the gb on planting, the FT is beyond. tommies at the back are much bigger and just starting to flower. lettuces have struggled, its a bit of a hot place, but we've put up shadecloth an its starting to take of now :)

Thanx for encouragement. After seeing this pic I can see it really has grown. The gb is on the North with strong hot easterlies blowing from 5am - 10am and full sun throughout the day until sunset. I think it will come into its own in winter but wonder if too harsh in summer. I have put up 50% shadecloth but wonder if enough. The chives are frizzled on the ends and the lettuces a bit stiff - they are green enough .

Hi FFW, I have 70% shadecloth on my shadehouses and everything grows great. I am in western Vic and we get blistering heat in summer.
Looking good :headbang:
