We have tried them in bags in the tunnel and that was a failure, as we grow so many outside we have decided that it's not worth the effort.Anne Wilsonhttp://anirishalternative.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8448820564852330128.post-49485884317100288252014-10-20T05:36:09.167-07:002014-10-20T05:36:09.167-07:00Sounds like you know what you are doing with the t...Sounds like you know what you are doing with the tunnel, Anne?

Had hoped to make more headway in the tunnel but tomatoes are still ripening, picked another three pounds today plus four pounds of green ones for the chutney.Anne Wilsonhttp://anirishalternative.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8448820564852330128.post-64979531941552426682014-10-19T07:57:01.467-07:002014-10-19T07:57:01.467-07:00We are going to clear out our poly-tunnel this wee...We are going to clear out our poly-tunnel this week.
