I was up in New York for several days. Sunday the sun came out and locals were smiling and just had a bounce in their step. Chinatown was jumping too, plenty of tourists. Times Square was busy too, and still we heard the voices of internatioal travelers, but outside of Chinatown we didn't see Asian groups.

Back in DC now for our version of a cold spell:

At 0930 it is 39°F and we are looking at highs in the low 40s for the next few days. The real issue is overnight lows dropping into the 20s. Bottom line, it is still winter.

This weekend we are expecting another warm spell with highs in the low 50s.

Lack of Chinese tourist is costing everyone. But the beating hotel and airline stocks took this week was based on fears of what might happen. Chinatowns in big port cities are our weak link. That, or some sick guy sneezing on a laptop keyboard and an hour later it's loaded in the belly of an airplane. It just takes one.

Nice. How are you keeping them in veg? Or are you trying for a quickie spring crop?
Yes. They just started to flower. I think they needed time to adjust after transplant. Now they’re taking off. Hopefully I can make it to mid April. I don’t mind chopping prematurely because I’m also going to run some during the normal season.

Yea, I would rather have bud a week or two early than no bud at all. The cold got me good this go round. 23F was enough to cash everything I had out. I have a few younger replacements, but they will be pushing it to finish, plus they are not as big.

How many hours daylight you got April 15th? 13:10 here. And on May 1st 13:44. If I can make it to May 1st I’ll be a happy camper.

4/15 will be 12 hours 58 minutes. 5/1 is 13 h 24 m. So I'm a little south of you, and can go a little longer. Other than maybe one Jack Herer x Shit/skunk f2, I don't have any sativa heavy strains going, so I should be alright. Last year's full season seeds that did the best were planted in April and May. So I have a while to sit and twiddle my thumbs.

Greenhouse temps are getting up there. Weather channel says 73F outside, 86F in the greenhouse. RH is 80% when I wake, but burns off quick.
Nice. I want a greenhouse but way to early on the east coast. What is the range for your greenhouse? How cold is it getting overnight?

My gh isn’t a true one. It has mesh sides so it can still get pretty cold in there. It’s 46 this morning. It’s gotten down to 32-36 I think the week after I planted. Heavy mulch and oscillating fans blowing prevent frost from forming at those temps. The roof of the greenhouse was frozen, but the plants were fine.

It was hot today. Windy as well. There is a big cotton field nearby that just got tilled, and the wind had so much dust in the wrecked longleaf's behind the house it looked like smoke. We went from 63-78F. At 1820 there is light rain, 71F with 87% humidity. Forecast low of 65F with 80% chance of rain tonight, 90% tomorrow and tomorrow night. 10 day high low of 77/38F with 6 days of possible rain. Looks like we will get a few inches the next 48 hours. (by the time I'm ready to post, the rain is coming down in buckets now)
