This years plan is in a different area/town but close to a brook for ease of watering. Hopefully the past doesn't repeat itself.
i loved last summer, but september really fizzled. keep an eye out for leaf spot fungus playas. my plot is in NY grape growing region
Thanks manAWESOME idea for a thread BTW.
Flooding shouldn't be to much of a problem. In all the time I've lived here (about 10 years) the brook has had one major flood. Thanks for the concern.Planting near running water is always risky. Small brooks can channel large volumes of warter during a heavy downpour. Then a week later can be bone dry causing you to travel its length looking for water or making you haul some in. Make things easier on yourself when the brook's waters are flowing freely in spring, stash some away for later on in the summer when the going can get tough.
Thanks Sick this should prove vary helpful.almanac.com has anything you would ever want to know regarding weather in relation to gardening.
Hey there fellow UDG'er. Or is my memory not working again maybe it was the auto forum here. Either way. Even if the results from these prediction sites are guestimations it gives me something to plan for.IMO you can't rely on a weather forecast 1 week ahead... so all the way till summer wouldn't say much to me...
I guess you got about same weather as me during the summers, what strains are you gonna run outdoors btw?
Good luck hopefully those boils don't show up. All jokes aside though have fun, stay safe, most of all grow on bro.Madbuddha, You guys need to read the sticky on leaf spot at the top of the page. We've found the treatments that stop it. Its a terrible disease that cost me 2 crops before i got it by the throat. Not this year.
Climate change is in full swing in my enviroment. If not, ive offended the hell out of the Karma god somehow! I used to grow and not even have to water my plants. Now, Im either battling a biblical fuckin flood, a biblical drought or an accompanying biblical plaque of fungus and pests!
The only things i havent seen yet are boils on my ass and raining frogs,....but we still have the season before us. Im expecting them at any time now!
