Sunday, 4/27: warm winds began blowing northward in the early AM hours until about 9:30am, it is now calm but with the temperature rising into the mid 90's F (35 C). It is unusual both in the wind direction and the amount of heating for this time of year.

. had people almost run in the ditch yesterday looking at the "huge" plants in those pots. lol! i think its great.

Richard · 05-24-2008, 01:45 PM

The "merry month of May" has brought a mix of weather here in San Diego CA and apparently throughout north America. Here we started with 2 weeks of unusually warm weather and now we are concluding a week of cool weather (68 F, 20 C) that has included rain showers. So far it has been positive for most crops, although we'll need to have at least 90 days with warm midday temperatures (86 F, 30 C) between now and the end of summer to ripen seasonal tropical fruits such as mangos, sapotes, etc.

chong · 05-24-2008, 03:53 PM

It's still cold in Seattle. Mornings this past work week still in the upper 30s(3°C). 2PM maybe 65°F(18°C). Still have to wear a lined raincoat and scarf for the 12 block walk from the parking lot to the office. Plus, umbrella if it's raining.

Last weekend was an exception. Thursday the temps were in the low 70s(20s), Friday a whopping 92°F(33°C)! Saturday/Sunday back to the low 70s, Monday was in low 60s.

That Thursday evening, 5/16, I looked at my CA Gold's leaves, and the emerging leaf that been trying to push out the last 10 months, was about 2" long, still tucked in partially inside the previous leaf's petiole. Friday afternoon, 5/17, the thing had pushed out 10", but was still unfurled. Yesterday 5/23, it was completely out and unfurled, looking very pale, 20" long. Here's what it looks like today:

Richard · 05-24-2008, 04:10 PM

Looking good, Chong. The cold-hardiness of that cultivar is amazing.

dablo93 · 05-24-2008, 04:13 PM

here its between the 70 and the 75 (around 23c)degrees for most of the month. a few cool days with 16 degrees.
tomorrow we''ll get some rain and after that a few days with 80+ (28c) with thunderstorms and next weekend normal 75 degrees (24c) with sun, and no rain.
normal day temperatrures for may is 65 F (18c) so maybe we get the warmest may ever here.
the bananas like it!
here's a pic of my nanas, I am REALLY, REALLY happy wit them!!

Thanks, Richard. Today, it's 75°F (24°C) outside. Before I took the picture, it was 97°F (36°F) inside the greenhouse. I had to switch on the vent to open manually because the limit switch of the ridge vent crapped out 8 years ago. And I couldn't find a replacement for it because my greenhouse manufacturer had gone out of business. A few years ago, I found a company that took over service issues of Lord & Burnham products and they are now available again. With the ridge vent open, the greenhouse is a "cool" 84°F (29°C).

Looks great, Daen! (no pun intended) For us, this is probably the coldest May we've had in years. With summer coming in a few weeks, we just might skip spring altogether.

But o-o-o-oooh! I would hate to make a decision later on when the plants outgrow some of those beautiful pottery, whether to smash the pot or risk cutting into some roots to transplant the plant into a larger pot. I'm already having that dilemma right now, whether to plant some favorite plants into some nice pots but hate the thought that I might have to smash the pots when the plants over grow them. And they're not even as nice as your pots!

Best wishes to Fernie as the eye of Hurricane Dolly rolls right over Brownsville.

Dean W. · 07-23-2008, 10:05 AM

Yes, Fernie becareful! There expecting 15-20" of rain too.

jewelbaby1224 · 07-24-2008, 02:46 PM

Xavier, how are you doing down there in the storm????

mskitty38583 · 07-25-2008, 01:05 PM

fernie you all right?

Richard · 10-01-2008, 12:27 PM

At 10am, its 95 F (35 C) outside, what we call "fire weather". A high-pressure zone in the deserts several hundred miles east of here is reversing the normal cool westerly flow off the ocean and heating up the southern coastal counties. I wonder where the fire will start.

Chironex · 10-01-2008, 08:27 PM

It's hot here too, but should be cooling down in a few days. Hope you are enjoying our weather!

damaclese · 10-12-2008, 09:12 AM
