Rooftop Greenhouse Grow Amsterdam

ah now i get it. aye PK'd them up to the hilt eh. you'd not had a drink perchance? that's the kind of thing i do to my porch plants after a drink, thinking aye some pk will do the blooms no end of good. which it did and then promptly burnt them out in a fortnight. flowers looked boss for a couple weeks though but there was ne chance of a second bloom.

I wonder if the big terracotta tub of poppies i left at the old digs bloomed this year. I should go and nab them. lol.

To be fair on my stupidity, although I cannot claim that I was drunk this time, stoned maybe but not drunk, I stay clear of the gardens when riding that wave, my feed to them was honestly not that much. Maybe the bottle needs throwing, I have had it for years and (here goes the blame shifter) the wife was commenting on how the tomatoes didn't look that great, so I thought nooblike and tossed some feed at them. Some N and pk13/14, with about 10mls for 20litre of water....that was obviously enough to hammer them though. I am not sure I'll even get an end of season harvest.....watch this space.

You going to nab the pot as well? or just the poppies?

10mls for 20L that's barely a 1/4 dose. they should have been totally fine with that. it's 4-5ml per litre for weed. maybe it goes bad but i doubt it dude. maybe the heat idk?!

the pot was about 25L so probably not unless it's brimming lol my pal popped over with a smidgen of some opium the other day off an asian guy he does work for. it was quite nice mixed with a bit gringo. won't be getting into it regular like too moreish

Those pots they are in are 70litres.....I still think it was the pk, it happened not long after, I just didn't expect it what with the low dosage. Ah well, lets see how they taste. But there doesn't look like there will be trays and trays of passata in the freezer over winter

could well have been if the soil was pretty 'hot' to begin with maybe? never know your donald duck we might get an Indian summer...... famous last words. it's actually about holiday temp in the uk right about now, i can;t believe you've got rain. normally we get pretty similar weather.

I ams till in shorts though, it's still quite warm, just overcast and raining!

aye, i've not been out of shorts in 2 weeks, even in the rain it's just muggy and humid. i'm not complaining though. it'll be cold n wet soon enough eh.

Shit happens, Bro! My first year with p cherokees, I got 4 off two plants lol...couple years later, we cant keep up with them. Looks good! ATB!

do you think Fatty Boom Sticks is at work on the rooftop.? He just might have planted TTFUTGH and ate your blueberrys too.
mon, I could never grow a garden of scruptous delights like you. i envy your skillz.
mR. trichomes wants to know if the streets of Amsterdam are lined with coffins.

After yesterdays rain Ambs I wouldn't be surprised to see some coffins floating past, but if it's plane crash victim coffins then they all went to Hilversum I believe. Flags all over (including peoples flat and houses) are flying at half mast.

Fattyboomsticks has been about funnily enough, but I stopped feeding them due to the amount of bird crap we were getting....little Finches are still nipping about. I found about 6 or 7 blueberries still on the bush, although god knows how long they will still be there for.

Here's some of the Dolce Rosso's, I am beginning to wonder if I done a Don G and took a clone and labelled it wrong, lol. Not sure how I would have done that since last year all the Dolces where on the one side of the greehouse and the other varieties on the other side......anyway, quite a mad difference.


As you can see, this is the size of a normal dolce rosso, with my home grown ones at the back.....scratches head in wonderment.


Peace, DST

LOL, nope don't look a like to me..and I don't know much about tomato genetics.lol
can u tell by the taste difference a true Dolce Rosso? they all look so delicious I would eat them like an apple!

These are super sweet just like the Dolce's, but it's like day and night for looks. You can generally tell the difference. The problem is the dolces have an intense sweetness to them, and I think these have lost that with the size they have grown. They are very fleshy as well so I think will actually make great sauce. The dolces I done last year made amazing tasting sauce, but you needed a shit load to get volume. And yup, eating like apples is the way I do like a bit of salt and pepper though...if my arteries are not being hardened what's the point in eating eh!

I concur! like an apple adding salt as you go haha. so they taste like dolce's then yeah? well i spose if it walks like a duck eh!?

Aye lad, they do indeed taste like the dolce's, but the taste is changed or seems slightly different because the texture is different (if you undestand what I mean). Soon as you add salt though the sweetness is intensified massively. Maybe it's because they are not so concentrated that they seem slightly different!?

Some of my "Best Steak" toms from last season also have grown out with that heirloom shape this year. I figured they are based on a hybrid and this is one of the phenos.

I have a bunch of yellow Italian teardrop toms from years ago that still pop up in the garden - sweet as candy! FIxed the back sprinklers and now I have a bunch of wild tom plants popping up with the weeds!




Birthday Cheers,

giant dolce's sound like a winner to me D. mine have got normal sized green fruit on and plenty flowers so hopefully there's going to be a few more weeks of decent sun and i'll get more than a salad out of them lol.

Can't wait to get the move done and get a greenhouse up. though it'll be next year it gets filled sadly.

a couple of the dolces on the plants are normal size, will be interesting to taste them....I was starting to think I had done a classic move like yerself and mixed the clones up, lmfao....just messin lad

so what you talking about; the greenhouse in Spain?

oh aye the old 'i've done a Donald' trick eh haha

and no mate I was meaning my new house, looks like it's on and in the next couple of months to boot, I'm potting everything and flipping now. not that there's anywhere to put it like.

dog clones, blue pit clones, peppers, greenhouse pic, "thingfromunderthegreenhouse clone" - (repotted as it was coming out the plug), and thing fromunderthegreenhouse in the flesh, not looking too good. First Beef Streak fruit showing, might be a bit late in the season.

Clones are looking strong and green!
