phicks, what are your overnight temps this time of year?

Lakeland, FL(Zone 9b)

Scottsdale, AZ

Desert temps are strange.

I second the strange temps here. My plummies cannot make up there mind what they want to do.

Scottsdale, AZ

I know those in MI, IL OH, IN MN etc are going to laugh at this, but I can't wait for the night time temps to get warmer. Yes, I know that heralds summer sizzlers but I want to plant so badly I can taste it. Yuk, manure! maybe I have to rethink how badly I want to plant.

What is HPS Lights ?

scio, oregon, OR(Zone 8a)

High Pressure Sodium lights. They emit the red-orange light spectrum that encourages flowering and seed setting. Kind of like the light we get in august and september.

Scottsdale, AZ

a couple of leaves are turning yellow and the newest leaf is still not opening, after growing to length on Sunday. I'm beginning tohink this one isn't going to make it afterall. It's far too cyd cherise-y, all legs.

Scottsdale, AZ
