One week ago the overnight low was forecasted for 40. Unfortunately it got down to 31 with a lot of frost and my young brassicas got blasted. Boy, that forecast sure was a miss! All around us in towns 7-10 miles away the lows were 40 except in Augusta down on the Savannah River where it did get down to 31. I guess since this property is somewhat down between two ridges, we got some colder air. I can't remember such a forecast miss so it ticks me off. If I had known, stuff would have been covered.
At first the central growth points on the plants seemed OK but yesterday afternoon I decided to reseed all six broccolini, four of the cauliflower and the four collards. The only good thing is that because I'm doing staggered starting, there are four more 4 cauliflower ready to be set out as well as the other four broccolis being set out today. The kale did just fine but the demise of the collards surprised me. Not old enough, I guess. Stuff sure will be staggered now! |
