THE june frost: crystalline inevitability

08/06/09 9:29 AM

well it happened.  too early to say certain on the kill, but I’d say near annihilation of all the new growth, and probably some buds as well.  too bad, because it was going so well this year.

Final Score: 7 hours sub 32, 4 @ 28.5 F        Nature: 1       JMV: 0

    Horrible score, I’m so sorry. I thought the score between Costa Rica and USA in the world cup qualifier was worse, clearly not. I got hit with that last year on June 15th…no fruit but I was able to drive more carbs into my root system with the secondary buds. Keep your chin up the weather gods do smile on us every once in awhile.
