Re: My sheltered Ae Ae
One other thought came to mind, Brent. In researching grow tubes for seedling trees I once found information that photosynthesis was reduced when wind speeds increased to over 8mph. I don't know why this is, but I have since observed that plants in wind sheltered areas do grow more (not just taller due to shading) than plants in windy areas. This is especially noticeable in one of my alfalfa fields located about 100 feet away from a row of very tall eucalyptus trees. I'm now wondering if a torn banana leaf is able to reduce the effects of wind.
I've sent e-mails to a couple of people that I thought may have posted the information or seen it. This is bugging me now.
