6" of rain in one day and major flooding yesterday night and snow flakes this morning. go figure. but planting spots are dry and 2 spacers are running in each greenhouse besides the soil cables also. which mean 4 extension cords running out my window from different outlets to avoid tripping circuits. one cord with a splitter works the soil cable and one 1500 watt heater. the other cord just gets one 1500 watt heater. I can hold night time temps over 55 if near freezing outside. to do this I needed to clamp visqueen to the fronts to seal tighter due to busted zippers on old green house doors. 40 mph cold gusts and cloudt and 80 degrees in there in day. gonna leave buttoned tight with heaters on high for next 8 days. tomorrow is go time on seed starting. 2013....what will she bring?
