And I'm praying he's going to be wrong on that one. It's one I wouldn't mind him being wrong on. However, I am not counting on it.
I'm sure you've heard the saying. ......
If you mention something and it's good, it goes away, and if it's bad, it happens.
I am expecting to gain a little extra growing season on this end this year. It *LOOKS LIKE* at this point in time, we are safe to plant.
A friend started my tomato plants this year and they are already a really good size, way bigger than the garden/hardware store 6 packs.
I also found a nice container of huge green peppers that was a little pricey, but they are already two feet tall with lots of flowers, so if they can start producing NOW, we can get them all summer instead of the end of Aug.
I figured I'd grab them before they were gone.
Good job nabbing those. I’m hoping that with the greenhouse, we’ll be able to bring in some things and extend the harvest a bit later even if the fall/winter arrives early.
Have been very spoiled by nice weather through to end of November in a lot of years - even harvesting lettuce at Xmas time. However, during the 70s and earlier, it was not unusual to have huge snows before Thanksgiving.
