We've had quite a pleasant stretch the past few weeks. 48 has been the absolute minimum so far this winter. This is so much better than 2009-2010

Brutal! How do your Passiflora and bananas look? Did they manage to avoid the frost?

I'm too lazy to try to grow bananas in a place like Hemet.

No problem for any of my Passiflora. Outdoor bananas are yellow but no frost damage. Unheated greenhouse bananas are growing

The price on a box of lettuce went from $12 to $40. The lettuce growers down here are going to be making $40,000/acre. That will make a difference in the local economy.

80 F here today. Dry. We've had some brush fires already. It MAY rain today/tomorrow though.

My bananas seem to have made it through the one cold night(35F), and I see some new leaves pushing up through the center on a couple.

In area growing farms, they're harvesting cabbages by the truckload, and I saw a load of potatoes as well. Planting most of the fields but I haven't been able to tell what they're planting yet, but I'm certain some are more cabbages. They finally plowed under the old corn fields that were left too.

Three days ago we set an all-time (~150 years) high of 77F, which was a full 10 degrees warmer than the previous record high. The next night it snowed, and the low was all the way down to just 1F last night.

I have an unheated semi-pit greenhouse that I just built this fall. The lettuce/spinach/beets were fine, but the week-old tomato plants were wiped out. I planted a 4' Dwarf Orinoco in there last month to see how it would do, and its leaves fried when the outdoor night temps dropped into the teens. I cut the top off about a week ago and the p-stem was fine about 5" down from the top (I unfortunately screwed up and lopped off an additional 8" that I didn't need to). It had pushed a new leaf up a couple of inches going into last night, but rather than getting fully fried, it looks like only the top 1" of it has cold damage.
