So, it's been a bit cold and windy here and...

the hoop house has been a bit compromised!  The high winds seem to have made it possible for too much cold air at night to get in and the greens have definitely suffered some frost bite!  Hopefully they will recover.  As you will see in the pictures the Puntarelle have continued to grow and I hope they will be ok.  Time will tell.  The Treviso seen to still be doing fine so I will have to dig some more up and force them.  Here are a few shots of the Puntarelle.

  1. The hardy greens do very well even when they get cold stressed, so long as they have protection from all but the worst of the weather. I think you will be surprised at how well they recover and bounce back.

  5. Been a little windy here too, but actually pretty warm this past week. Of course there is more cold weather on the way.
