Planting question
Comments (4)I think you are confusing heat with temperature. How would you like to spend your days in such 100ú environment, and then try to to stay warm enough to fend off freezing nighttime temperatures. No, plants have distinct preferences and while some houseplants really go for cool nights, they would not appreciate being given the cold shoulder. Much better to give them the temperatures they do best in--usually in the range of 60ú at night, and sunny/partial shade periods during daytime hours. Your greenhouse should have a method to allow outside temperatures to moderate the inside heat and vice versa. Through window glass the sun can increase dramatically on a tender leaf. A method of shading should be arranged on those exposures where the sun raises the temperature so high is prevalent. Where shade might be too much, simply raising the plant might solve the problem. And water never solves a heating problem--water only as the plant can use it....See MoreQuestions about Alabama
Comments (61)Not to shed a negative light on our state, but I'm curious if you've heard about all the uproar down here this week? Hope you've been informed that, even though you may not be a college football fan right now, after you're here a couple of years you MUST pledge your allegiance to either Auburn University (war eagle! or the University of Alabama (roll tide!). It's mandatory (no, not really). But seriously, you'll be amazed how college football dominates in this state. The vast majority of folks down here can be passionate fans of their favorite school, enjoy kidding around & joking with their rivals, but yet keep it all in perspective. Unfortunately though, like what happened this week, somebody occasionally forgets its just a game & takes it way over the line.
