The sunroom makes a good greenhouse!
So a few weeks ago, I planted some "Purple tiger" (a.k.a. Trifetti) chilli seeds I got from a friend - some in the sunroom, some in the courtyard. Turns out the sunroom worked well as a greenhouse. 5/7 came up there, as opposed to the courtyard where 0/8 came up.

Yeah, the greenhouse effect is working for me too; both of my hops plants from last year came back, but the one in the front yard is 4 inches high while the one in the pot on the loungeroom windowsill is about 8 feet of convoluted vine wrapped around itself, the curtain rod, the window...
Cool! Are there photos comparing the out in the cold versus the comfort of the lounge?
There aren't... yet.
