The climate on the north Olympic Peninsula has many advantages, but it makes growing some vegetable varieties difficult. Local Master Gardeners say having a greenhouse can open up a world of possibilities to you beyond growing tomatoes or peppers.
The North Olympic Peninsula’s short growing season and cool temperatures can prevent tomato plants from setting fruit or keep fruit from ripening before the weather turns cold.
PORT ANGELES — Veteran Clallam County Master Gardeners Bob Cain, Laurel Moulton and Audreen Williams will discuss why waiting is best to plant warm-season crops, such as tomatoes, from
10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Saturday.
