We are expecting 28 to 32 degrees from 3 AM to 9 AM. I spent two hours last night filling the greenhouse. All the plants are on heat mats. Tonight I spent two hours covering plants with plastic. This will teach me to have over 330 varieties of tropical plants. My Guava, papaya, pineapple and bananas are fruiting. I have many types of heliconias, gingers, alocasias, colocasias, bromeliads, plams, anthurium, Star fruit, Cacao. Oh well. I am planning on moving to Hawaii in 3 to 5 years. Less plants to take with me.
We also moved the chickens in the house for the night. Two of them are molting and are naked. They are sleeping in a large dog crate in the family room. My kids think this is cool.
I hope everyone makes it out safe!
