Tomatoes thrive in temperatures of 65 degrees and above.
However, people can grow these red fruits during the winter
months in their backyard greenhouses. With right heating and
light conditions, you can see the fruits growing all year round.
Tired of eating those tasteless and insipid tomatoes during the cold season? Not to
worry anymore. That’s because you can grow these wonderful red fruits and other
vegetables in your home conservatory. These home grown tomatoes will be fresh and
taste great when nurtured in backyard greenhouses.
It is true that there is nothing like juicy and ripe tomatoes picked directly from the vine.
Then, growing the fruit throughout the colder months seems impossible; but no, it’s not
impossible if you have a backyard planthouse.
There are several portable and easy to install gardening materials and tools to allow
cultivation of your preferred vegetables and fruits. You can transform your courtyard into
lush greenery profuse with plants, fruits, and vegetables at half the cost. With storage
house kits and materials, you can grow them all year round. These storage houses are
affordable, compact, easy to install, and lightweight. The weatherproof shell keeps the
interiors dry and protected. There are integrated vents that allow for ventilation and also
keep pests at bay.
There are numerous reasons why gardening aficionados prefer to cultivate tomatoes in
greenhouses. First of all, people can grow these red fruits in places where the summer
temperatures are not suitably high to make plants bear red ripe tomatoes. People also
cultivate this plant so that they can pick ripe fruits throughout the winter months.
Grow Fresh Ripe Tomatoes in Your Backyard
Greenhouses All Year Round
The ideal temperature condition for tomato growth is above 65 degrees. This is
imperative for the plants to grow and bear ripe fruits. Therefore, if you have an unused
backyard, why not install a lean-to-greenhouse for providing the required temperature.
These lean-to varieties can be attached to any potting shed in your home garden. Such
conditions ensure that the plant will not have stunted growth. These greenhouse
materials have a large screened door that you can open to enable pollinators to fly
inside and out during the daytime. This is essential for fruit formation.
There are some factors that need to be considered if you are interested in growing
tomatoes throughout the winter months. First, one must ensure that backyard
greenhouses have the right light conditions. You can provide for supplemental lighting
if you want to see large, flavorful varieties growing during the cold and dark chilly
months
Next, you have to consider heat. As you know, these fruits thrive best in temperatures of
65-70 degrees and above. For instance, if you are cultivating only tomatoes in one
section of your conservatory, use poly sheets to create an artificial wall so that the entire
greenhouse is not heated up. This way, other shrubs and vegetables growing, will not
be affected. Some gardeners also make use of heat mats for keeping the fruit warm.
Last but not the least is pollination. Make use of a paintbrush to pollinate tomato flowers
with your hands. This is easy as you have to move pollen from one flower to the other to
ensure fruit formation.
Now, you can grow juicy tomatoes even during winter provided you follow the
instructions religiously. You will be simply delighted to pick fresh ripe fruits and enjoy
savoring with salads and soups!
