Good temperature range for chip budding apricots?
Comments (1)My limited experience says that budding too early might be an issue. With my long season July/August buds heal in but then often don't push next spring. Next time I'm waiting until September. In your zone August is probably right but that's just a guess. I think temperatures will be OK for you another month. If properly wrapped I can't see 90s being too hot but 80s might be better....See MoreWhat's the optimum winter storage temperature range for tubers?
Comments (2)Yeah I have a thermometer lying right beside the boxes of tubers, and since they are right against the door, I can look in and see the temperature at any time. Also, the way the roof is positioned, I dont get any sun hitting it in the winter, because the sun is so low in the sky and neither side of the roof faces the sun. It's 2:56 PM right now, and the temp in there is 45 degrees F. The temp outside is about 33 degrees. The temp differential is caused by heat from the house getting into the attic from below and from one side(my bedroom)....See MorePineapples - temperature range tolerated
Comments (1)My pineapples always look bad when temperatures dip to about 40F ( even lost one at 40F once!). I suggest keeping them above 45 at ALL times and its best if they are above 50F. In a sheltered spot (mine was completely exposed to wind), it could probably handle the mid 30s but I dont think they would like a frost despite looking like pretty hardy plants! they do, however, make great house plants by a nice bright window and even better potted plants outside when summer comes. PS, my pineapples were also started from tops (I do that practically everytime I get a pineapple, lol). Good luck! -Alex...See MoreWarming Drawer Selection - Comparing Temperature Ranges
Comments (3)I may not be much help at all here, because I've never tried to slow cook in my warming drawers. Typically I use it to either warm tortillas, or keep a casserole or plates warm while something else is cooking in the oven. I had a Thermador for 26 years, and it still worked fine, but during our kitchen freshen-up last year, I wanted a paneled front, so I found a Viking that fit. It functions no better, or worse than the Thermador. Interesting, you say the Viking goes to 250* I had no idea it got that hot! It really doesn't seem to be any warmer than my old Thermador, maybe it went to 250* as well? I've never checked with a thermometer... And no moisture problems with the paneled front so far, after almost a year, knock on wood ;)...See MoreCrenda 10A SW FL
