I also ordered my wife a DC XL venus flytrap. I think we are going to do a bog garden next year.

As an avid waterfowl hunter I can tell you the coldest it's been at my house within the last 5 years. 8 degrees. I am about 30-60 min north of dallas depending on traffic.Refers to how low the temp gets on average
Citrus and peach do well here ??♂8b is a pretty sweet zone if you are a gardener
wide variety of options to grow
Citrus is tough though and I have lost apricot and peach trees

I can only speak for 8b on pacific coast NA personally.
Ya, you could kill the citrus game.
It warmed up by 7 am.same here
we hit just under 10 degrees for 2 days last 2 years
kinda crazy considering how much closer to equator you are
yikesIt warmed up by 7 am.
The peppers love the heat, pisses them off more. The tomatoes on the other hand absolutely hate how hot it gets here. Sure my tomatoes plants are 6 feet tall, but they look like shit. We no shit have to grow them under a tree.yikes
only got to 60 degrees last night here...that is damn hot for here...we only have a single window unit ac for whole house tho
I know it is not that bad compared to many southern places, but we got ocean air that is kinda humid during heat waves.
I sweated 5-6 lbs of water at work between 7am and 2pm...inside hydrating and shitposting now lol
I bet your peppers and tomatoes love the hotter nights you folks get
Haha pisses them off more...peppers do get hotter and better with some stressThe peppers love the heat, pisses them off more. The tomatoes on the other hand absolutely hate how hot it gets here.

Yep. Our tomatoes are pretty much done now with the heat. Going to rip them put soon and prep for fall crops.The peppers love the heat, pisses them off more.

We have a bunch ripening, the tree is a huge helpYep. Our tomatoes are pretty much done now with the heat. Going to rip them put soon and prep for fall crops.
I’m sure it is! Where we have our garden beds it’s nuking them now that summer has kicked in. Considering building a tomato only spot somewhere else that gets a little less sun. I have a spot in the yard that starts getting shade around 3pm. Feel like eliminating those last few hours of direct sun would make a big difference.We have a bunch ripening, the tree is a huge help
Plant an ash tree. Mine is maybe 4 years old.I’m sure it is! Where we have our garden beds it’s nuking them now that summer has kicked in.

You need shade cloth man.I’m sure it is! Where we have our garden beds it’s nuking them now that summer has kicked in.

I've contemplated putting up some 6x6 posts and stretching out a big shade cloth. The posts could also be used for catfish skinning.You need shade cloth man.
Comes in different grades that only let in certain amounts of sunlight.
Not cheap but will last multiple seasons and might open up the options and extend the growing season...plus much easier to do gardening under in the summer sun.
