Will the heat be unkind to my garden?

It was +18'C @ 5:40 am...it's going to be a scorcher, on our way to +33'C. The hot tub will now be a cooling tub, with water temp of ~90'F.

The garden is slowly coming to life, some disappointments, but hey, it's all a learning curve. Enjoy!

Yes folks...this is our FIRST almost ripe tomato, still on the vine!!!! Yes we are in zone 2A! When you factor in the greenhouse price, this is one very expensive tomato! There better be more!

Good job hiding the dental floss on your ripe tomato Mom - just kidding.

About 5 years ago MacAulay's and the Beck's were competing in tomato gardens and Dad actually bought ripe tomatos from Sobey's and tied them on with dental floss, actually it was longer than 5 years ago, it was when he was actually retired for 6 weeks. Obviously he had too much time on his hands!
