Greenhouse??

Well, my tomato plants and cucumbers have been outside in the greenhouse now the last couple of weeks. Apart from a small paraffin heater to keep the frosts off on forecast cold nights they have nothing else but the sun.

Have I put them out too early? I may have been conned by the warm first two weeks in April

Rose bushes and cherry trees yes, something as silly as fruit and veg? Not in my garden!

My wife has some tomato plants out in a cold frame, they seem to be doing alright but they are an outdoor variety. She has some squashes and some peppers growing but they are still in the lean-to, just going out in the day to toughen them up a bit.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Last year seemed to alternate between the dryest/hottest month on record and the wettest month since 1827. April this year has been the hottest April since records began and also particularly dry. I don't know about tomatoes or greenhouses but I bet it'll rain and rain next month.
