Yep...pouring rain, upper 50’s...moved containers into shelter until the rain passes. Hopefully; this doesn’t agitate the blight problem.

This past weeks weather, here in Central Mississippi, has been beautiful. Highs in the mid 80’s and overnight lows in the 60’s. It looks like we will be in the low 90’s this week with lows still in the 60’s. Nice for this time of year!

SW Ohio I can grow salad fixins “greens” all winter long with just my hothouse. More work than what it is worth though .. I did it for experimentation.

We can be 6 degreees one day and 50 degrees the next. Yes, I could build automated vents, monitors and such .... my tomatoe costs after 7 years of buiding beds, buying feedlot panels, and such is probably down to 15 dollars a pound now.

My gardens are primarily perrenial and non herbaceous shrubs ... some 2700 odds and ends of plants I can’t live with out. That takes most of my time, and fall is the busiest time of this gardeners year.

However, I just can’t resist a homegrown mater, green bean or bell pepper. So I dabble with those only. Nothing else like them
