looking for others growing heirlooms in greenhouse

I just finished harvesting a late crop of heirloom tomatoes from my greenhouse (finished Nov 8). These were started in late June/early July for a late season harvest, and grown organically in a medium of soil, peat and manure - fertilized only with fish emulsion, seaweed extract, etc.

This was my first experiment with heirlooms in a greenhouse for a delayed season. I am looking for other growers who are growing heirloom tomatoes in a greenhouse so we can compare notes. I've tried searching for some threads but haven't had much luck (then again, I'm not exactly stealth with this forum being new to it).

I am also interested in doing some heirloom melons in the greenhouse next year and would like any advice about types other heirloom growers have tried...
