Yesterday’s forecast called for rain off and on all day, so I decided to go ahead and install the second set of greenhouse gutters. The first set I installed a few weeks ago went well, so I decided I might as well go ahead and install a few more.
After the gutters were in place I filled them with 1/4″ of pea gravel.
Then I added moistened potting soil.
I ended up planting 65 strawberry plants in 40′ of galvanized gutters. I think it will be interesting to see if there is a difference in the yield of berries I am able to harvest from inside the greenhouse vs the ones I planted outside the other day.
I have 1 more “berry project” on my list I’m going to try and complete this week, and after it’s finished I’ll be on berry maintenance mode until the end of June.
Can you feel it? Spring is almost here.
