A neat setup with matching colors, lol. That should let them know they are in good company. Thank you for the 'low' lighting. You're almost down to my level, lol. Best of luck---eric g

Hey Nick,

I’m doing a number of things to manage thermals outside. Right now the patch is under 6mil clear poly to warm the soil. Afternext week’s amendments and till I’ll have solid heating cables and a 10x20ft portable greenhouse setup over the planting area. Once the plants are out I’ll have them “double tented” at night under a 4ft x 8ft hoop house with a small space heater running on a thermostat. I’ll remove the hoop house and open the 10x20 during the day as weather dictates. Stay tuned for more on all that!

Re the matching colors, good eye! While I wish I could claim it was all premeditated, it was totally by chance haha.
