I don't know that I think global warming just makes the earth warmer I think it could just cause drastic changes but that's not really what this entry is about. It's about the fact that I woke up freezing my tush off, when I went to sleep burning it of because it was so warm.
The weather has been absolutely nuts. It was freezing, rainy, and windy today. I did get one moment outside to check on things, make sure that the freeze wasn't killing everything but I didn't get to do anything else because the weather was not conducive to gardening. While I was out there I noticed that all of my plants must really love the heat because the last few days of boiling weather has caused almost everything to grow like crazy, almost overnight. One of the crooknecks ha an open bloom on it. It's absolutely beautiful. I'll post a pic tomorrow. The cantaloupe has started growing up the trellis which means in height it's grown at least 3 inches and its grown a whole new stem and leaf set. Amazing. The carrots have gotten taller in the last 3 days then they have in the last 3 weeks and carrots are a "cool/warm" crop. It's amazing to see what soil temperature really does to plants. How much it causes them to grow when it warmer and stunts them when it's cooler.
I'll most likely be able to get out and garden tomorrow so I'll take a video or a lot of pictures for a visual update.
The flower that blossomed over the last 2 days.
