If you click on the weather banner at the bottom of the post you can see what the temps and daylight hours are for my area. The neat part is that the banner has an accurate realtime forecast and history.

Last month (September) is when my plants started winding down, turning yellow

Right now daylight is 12on 12off with a loss of a few minutes of light each day.

night temps 50+-
day temps 65+-

The average temps will drop off in a couple of weeks as well as light.

Then I will have lots of yellow leaves.

The plants in the background are Musa basjoo and they will not stop growing till the ground temp is in the 40s and a few heavy frosts. Even with that they will still push leaves till a hard freeze destroys the pstem to the ground.

The ones on the skid are Bordelon, Dwarf red , Gran naine, Raja puri and Orinoco.
