Default Re: stories about bad timing

. its after 09:00 pm @ 83 degrees (according to digital thermometer) as im posting this.
maybe i will get lucky and get them to grow good until first frost... then i can hang em in the house.

later i will think about the mini plastic greenhouse trick. i should have done this before i went out to TX after hurricane Ike. and then had someone uncover them for me.

in Georgia that year we had a frost hard enough do knock my plants into dormancy then warm weather again.. when i returned i was looking at other peoples bananas green and still growing because they were next to houses or near trees.

if i try anything with plastic now the plants and fruit will fry. days and nights are not cool enough yet.
