We had really nasty weather last week. Sadly the zucchini I planted might not make it, they were not under a hoop house. HOWEVER the tomatoes, jalapenos, borage, and lemon balm were! It's getting a little warm in there even though I opened the ends (around 91 - 105 degrees F) but they seem to like it for the most part. All of the plants in there have doubled in size! I crawled around inside today and took some pictures. The white powder is
diatomaceous earth, it's working fairly well to deter slugs and earwigs so far.
Baby Jalapeno
Whole Jalapeno Plant

Borage

Outside of the hoop house some things are doing well:
