Default The Greenhouse Effect

With the storm we just had headed our way, I put all my plants in one corner of the covered part of my lanai and put up clear hurricane shutters at the wall section and enough to go halfway along the lanai to block some of the winds. It was very hot in there, even though it wasn't fully closed off. I decided to go out and spray a few times over a day and a half and this morning I found the most interesting thing had happened! A number of plants have big healthy roots about an inch long that weren't there before, two plants have spikes 4-5 inches long that were just nubs the other day and other plants have physically grown by inches! Now I see the benefit of what a real greenhouse would do...hubby's getting scared
