as nature would have it we had the coldest day/night on record, on that date in 103 years. Record Cold. My luck and my propane went down while I was at work. I cleaned up the plants in the greenhouse today to survey the damage. Any buds that were there all blasted all of them..
2nd year in a row I lost all my Bc little stars buds. I think Im done with this plant its ticking me off.
2nd year in a row the neostylis all blasted
1st time budded deckerii with 22 buds all yellow.
Den lawesii 3 clumps of buds all yellow.
Well I do have 2 buds left on a cymbidium
probably take a few days for the vandas to start turning yellow, the catts already are turning yellow. Paphs dont look like too much is hurt and the phals we dont know yet how hard they got hit. just simply sucks.
BUT I know theres a lot of people up north who also suffered record cold and have many more hardships than just holding down a tear or 2 for a stupid plant...I hope all of our Friends here at OB up north are doing as well as possible thru these storms..
Today was 66 with temps rising to 80 by the weekend..
Im seriously considering moving back indoors where Im in control. I cant control the greenhouse obviously.
Well Im like the bad kid in school who gets finished 1st and then irritates everybody else.....
Looks like Im done for flowers this winter............
