    Default Frost is coming soon....

    I would just like to add this tip, since the time of year calls for it.
    When the threat of frost looms large on this outdoor grower, he protects his crop with a 5 gallon pail of water....or as many are needed. I fill a pail with warm water and place it in the middle of my 20' x 20' garden and frost never touches inside the barrier of protection. One 5 gallon plastic pail filled with water, protects an area about 20' x 20'.
    I hope this tip helps save someone's time and energy!
    Good growing!

    That is an awesome little gem,thank you so much! Now I'm down to the
    last 3 existing on the deck....the tops are sparkling and glittering with
    frosty crystals....there's white hairs, or crowning the tops.....every night I
    test the air for coldness level then decide whether to move the girls inside...
    today is nice and sunny, not too windy,....there's pics somewhere of them,
    I'll try to post.. much love and appreciation to all the kind folks who encouraged me......you guys are the real friends and I love you.....this is the fIRST,...and maybe the ONLY time I will ever get actual ripe nugs with
    for real little crystals that are SMOKEABLE......the words of you guys guided
    and inspired and made my life a happy one....what a joy and pleasure it
    was to watch them grow.....this is indeed a very great day and you who
    helped and encouraged me I want to send a huge group hug

    Didn't know that but will never need it...what's frost?? Our biggest issues on Hawaii growing outside I would say is light, year round is pretty close to the 12 and 12 because we're close to the equator, hard to keep them from flowering, need to subliment with light.
    I'm making it up as I go along
