To give away low front that has been producing nice cold weather and plenty of rain. Yours for the asking. Will send your way free of charge. Would like to find a good home for it. Have grown kind of close to it over the past 7 days.But it is time for me to part with her. bye bye

I am at 6+ inches over the past week, 1.5 of that today.
I spread 5lbs 0-0-60 on top of the ground Wed. morning and now it is gone. I hope it just dissolved into the soil and didn't leach any or run off.
Sunny and 80 would be nice.

lets send it over to the east coast mark...it is really there already, but they could use more(and they will get more)!!! I have had enough...although the last two days have been somewhat nice with the rain holding off until the night time.....my plants have grown in this weather to my surprise.

OH HOW I WISH FOR RAIN The rainy season in Southern California stopped about four weeks ago. I now must spend many dollars for watering my pumpkins or cut down on the amount of time I spend in the shower. I will have to take a G I shower 30 seconds to wet down 2 minutes to lather up and 30 seconds to rinse off. I will probably spend the money. I took too many of those showers when we had water hours in the navy. Either way we will have NO rain until October or November. John = Water

Hey snowskeer......do you have a cold frame up? I still have my 896 under the frame. We've had a little over 4 inches here in the last week, and coolish temps. It's growing fast......one more leaf, and i'm gonna have to take the frame up. It's raining hard here right now, and only 52 degrees, but it's supposed to be moving out, and back up in the 70's in the next couple days! Sure hope the temps stay up once it outgrows the frame!!

Just lost the 968 Stellpflug to all the rain that got dumped on us last night...

My backups are all spoiled by now.. way to big and gangly. Gonna start some new seeds today, maybe I will have something for Holloween at least.

Just a week ago I was praying for rain... I'm gonna pray for money from now on!

Hey john...send a pic of your 968 in....i want to see what it looks like....i would think it could recover for you.....unless the stem snapped on it, otherwise it can recover.

For me down here we have had a lot of rain the peast week and a half, about 3-4 inches, but The last two days have been hot and dry. And we need a nother rain already. The temp out side is about 88F. I think that we are going to have a hot summer, I hope to get a misting system pretty soon so that I can cool off my pumpkin. It is already not enough that my pumpkin begins wilt in direct sun light.

Wow...we got hammered here in Mid-Michigan again today! Came home from my son's mototcross race yesterday to a flooded backyard, and my neighbor said that we had so much hail, that the yard turned white! Sure glad i left the cold frames up over my AG's. I left the Big Max plants uncovered, and there is a lot of hail damage...badly ripped leaves!! We're supposed to get patchy frost tonight, and then maybe we'll start warming up for the rest of the week now that this low has headed up into Canada. Here's hopin'!!

We are experiencing a spring drought here in the Inland Northwest. I have to say though that the weather has been perfect for starting A.G's My Sherber clone is 5 feet long and has sent out a fat back runner, while my Holland 1026 has 15 BIG leaves and is just starting to flop over. My Gadberry 410 is also doing very well 11 leaves and low to the ground. I don't even care if it rains I can control the moisture level but we had a couple of 90 degree days and I had trouble calibrating my misting system (got a little soggy) thank god for 10 mill greenhouses....
