Sun out, temp 95 deg in greenhouse, dirt temp consistently 62 deg over cables. Night temps holding in mid 50’s by morning and promptly up to 80 shortly after sunrise. Upcoming temp show 50-60’s – the heaters should add another 10 deg to that, so - - - - - PLANTED the 1613 McCracken to officialyl start the season 3 weeks earlier than last year. Trying to beat the fungus in late Aug-Sept. 1501 to plant in 4-5 days a couple feet to the left in the same hill – choosing the best to occupy the west side of the patch for the summer. East side will keep either the 1795 or 1495. Hmmmm – may wind up with double McCrackens – Dennis, is that good luck or doom?
