GA Girl.. oh.. some stay outside... some come down stairs to the house.. under 3... 400 watt MH lights.. on 6 + 10' motorized tracks..others winter up there.. in a cool room I build up every year in the fall... about 8' x 10 '.. x 10 ft tall I build it out of the 2" builders foam.. so it's more isulated than a freezer.. heated with a tiny heater.. in the spring I first cut a few holes in the roof.. and add plastic to make a wake up greenhouse... during the winter it's pretty dark inside.. for dormancy... although some things keep their leaves with the glow through the foam of the sun..this year I might give most away.. and just buy new ones... it has to be less expesive to replace everything
DirtyGirl.. well.. the dishes are on th e roof next door.. they are the resturants tv feed... and their hook ups to the lottery.. where they buy numbers and such.. from the state....I used to have one from direct TV.. but after them billing me for services they knew I didn't have as their tech department was unable to fix the problem... I went to cable.. it used to be on an unused chimnee top/ but it was replaced by 4 gigantic night blooming cereuses... [one pictured with it's 3 buds ] this one was from Cathy in CA...
is one blooming for the first time this year... from patookie .. outside Nashville..
Candela... well thanks... you've got the greatest collection... and best climate for everything ..I work out here but with such envy
