Yes to the moderate temperatures. When the sun comes out it is incredibly hot but most days are cloudy and the nights distinctly cold, which really is super weird here. At least there are no mosquitoes yet! Most of our plants seem quite resilient to the cold nights. A few things like the aloe vera didn't didn't make it through the winter.
You already know my grand solar minimum stance on why the weather is changing. For geo-engineering I think they are mostly just aiding the natural process to ensure max chaos and of course to spray us with the latest flavour of nanobot! Sorry to hear about Vancouver being one of the testing grounds. That must have been seriously tough for two years! But even without the rain/cloud seeding, I believe that greenhouses, tents or domes will be essential moving forward, stretching out grow season out as long as possible. If it is too cold at night, you just gotta get that problem figured out.
For now I've been lucky with how my plants are coping but those things are certainly on my list for next year. I would love a sunken greenhouse.
Feels like they are up to something here, so many chemtrails in these last few years and now the endless clouds & lower temperatures. But try talking to the locals about this subject and they will look at you like you're mad. Not common knowledge here yet.
That's great you're getting moderate weather good for growing food! Of course, who knows how long that will last, right? But for now, it's great you're able to take advantage of it by applying your green thumb to the land.
It's 44C here right now and my tiny tomato plants are doing their best not to die. The sunlight is intense. A couple seconds out there and you feel it burning you.... even if you've already got a tan, like I do! The beans are dying, the garlic is dead, the peas are dead, the squash are hanging in there because they've got partial shade. My goal was to grow more food this year than ever before, but it can't happen now. Not without a spring, and not with record high temps. Right now we're just a few degrees below the all-time high temperature ever recorded on Earth. It's unknown if plants can even theoretically survive at this temperature because most of the times it has happened have been in places like Death Valley, without plants. We're in uncharted territory. And my little AC is getting tired. If that goes, I don't know how to keep my son safe. We have no vehicle, no family support, no cell phone. I'll be asking a neighbor to call us an ambulance, I guess? Then again, they'll try to vaccinate him (and us) if we go to hospital, so that's not a good plan. I wish we had family/friends nearby. That's why I moved us to this little town (from Vancouver)... because I have family here. But I didn't realize they were going to shun us for our activism, for cannabis, and for seeing through the covid psyop. :(
No mozzies? That's awesome! :D
It is incredibly frustrating hearing your situation, knowing that you would be the perfect family to join our mission here! This region has a distinct lack of people who understand the importance of cannabis or who know how to tell the difference between a psyop and a pandemic. That is probably my main complaint about being here, so yeah, frustrating.
On the subject of cannabis our village mayor found a male plant growing next to one of the village car parks. Obviously someone had thrown the seed out of the window of a parked car and it had sprouted. Anyway, the mayor found the plant a week ago looking very developed and full of MALE flowers. His solution was to cordon off the car park for two days and wait till the police came and removed it! I mean, seriously? That's the kind of people I am dealing with here.
I've not had much experience with the hotter parts of the world and what you are going through sounds pretty extreme to say the least, but I wonder if you might be able to create some kind of barrier between the sun and the plants to reduce the intensity? Something like a camouflage net perhaps, or even just cardboard with little holes in it?
Don't know how practical this is, but you could potentially dig a hole? The temperature of the Earth down 20 or 30 feet is relatively constant year-round, somewhere between 50 and 60 degrees. Even if your hole is just 10ft deep you will still enjoy a cooler temperature down there and this would at least offer some kind of protection if the AC goes down.
