I am so excited about my strawberry plants.

I love strawberries.  Not the little wild or alpine strawberries that fool my tastebuds by being sour.  I love the sweet, juicy strawberries that these promise to be!

This is about 18 days worth of growth on the plants.  They seem to love the greenhouse!  Which is good, because I plan to nuture them to a plethora of strawberries to eat!

The greenhouse ventilation is back in business.  The plastic vent shutter snapped into pieces during a windstorm.

Now it is replaced with a tighter fitting aluminum one.

Looking back at it, I should have never put plastic shutters in, especially with the track record of my greenhouse in the wind.

You live.  You learn.

My little babies are growing up!  The largest of the bunch of mesquite trees are about three feet tall and are now starting to get their bark.  My next project will be to pot them up to five gallon pots.

I get my pots from a local nursery that recycles used black plastic pots.  People bring them back and I buy them for a few cents per pot.  After cleaning them up, they are good as new!

This honeydew is absolutely teasing me!  The melon is now larger than a golf ball.  I know it still has a way to go, but it is a reminder everyday in the greenhouse that I can hardly wait to harvest it.

The plant itself is quite healthy, but has not set any more blossoms as I suspect the temperatures fluctuate a little too much right now.  I am sure that in a few more weeks, the vines will have more flowers.
