That makes perfect sense, Ed. With a 30% chance of thundershowers predicted we lucked out with a mostly overcast and cool day. We did not need our shade cloth at all today and the plant looks good. More hot days are predicted but hopefully we can dodge a disaster.

Thanks for the feeding tip as well.
