Starting in January is a new experience for all of us. We're used to running with great spring weather - followed by the disappointment of 100 degree temperatures wrecking our pumpkins by the end of May. Since we were starting in mid-March we were left with a very short season. I know Phoenix temperatures were warm last year. (We only had 10 nights where the temperature was lower than 45 degrees). I also know the record lows are in the teens and low 20's, but those temps happened 50 plus years ago when Phoenix was smaller and we had more agriculture. I'm betting on the warmer nights.
