Hi from southwest Ohio

Hey everyone, I run a tiny place called Yellow Springs Experimental Farm.

I've got a small lot and 720 sq ft hoophouse in a small touristy town and sell to neighbors, to local restaurants and give away extra as well as feed my wife and me.

Since installing the hoop in Nov 2020 and now in the second summer season I'm really most proud of my cherry tomato growing (oh, but I know nothing about genetics and I'm here to learn but not necessarily practice!) and my cucurbit growing. I have a special nethouse project for parthenocarpic cukes that I'll likely talk about in the cuke forum and have been growing a great melon too (Emerald Gem).

Looking forward to learning.
