This has not been my day. First off, Wally licked my chocolates I got for Valentines Day and I can't eat them now!!
I stayed at the house too long chatting. When I got to the green house I noticed my brugs looked really wilted. I went inside to check them and found that my Jean Pasco pods that were about 2 weeks old (seed pods) had fallen off and were on the ground. I checked the pollen in the newly opened blooms(I've been waiting for them to open) and it looked funny, like a snail had eaten it. I checked the temp and it was 72*F. I checked the min/max recorder and it was 72* also. Hmmmmm...
Went down to the main green hosues and started transplanting roses( we got in 200) I now have a blister on my finger, and several rose stickers got me really good.
I found out what happened to my green house. DH finally fessed up. He forgot to open it till right before I got there. He also reset the min/max recorder so I wouldn't see how hot it had gotten(110*F). All of our houses have automatic fans, except the brug house. It's on his "to do list".
Finally, the worst thing was I couldn't find a brug I had promised to send Eric. I did remember to get the pollen out of the freezer for Irish and did send Tonny his seeds, so the day wasn't a total loss.
The hanging baskets have 6 inch [ots of brug seedlings in them. It's the only way I have room for everything and makes sure they get lots of sunshine.
