In this post I share my weekly video blog featuring what is growing on in the greenhouse dome in April. You will see tips on new tomato seed starter care and creative hanging baskets with Mangave.
My video is at Bren Haas YouTube Channel.
Highlights
In the video feature you will see what Mangave will do with little to no care! Below is that Inkblot Mangave I’ve had in my garden since 2017. Look at the color on that baby!!!
Many of the seeds I started this year were from 2014 and even later so I didn’t expect them to grow. The seed grew in a 3″ container and now need to be transplanted as they put on more than 4 leaves and 1 inch tall. I show some of these seeds in my video today.
Dome Gardening April Temperatures
Here is a copy of the temperature readings outside and in the dome. It is really nice to look at how the weather and sunlight effects things growing in my little world dome. The chart on the left is in the dome and the right is our weather station outside.

I need to do a blog post featuring the Temp Stick App we use and the Acrite Weather Station on our property. Let me know if you are interested in hearing more.
