Gelato Auto

2021-05-27 Day 9 Just a heads up I found a small glitch on Growdiaries, not their fault though they never likely would have expected someone to try and put -1C on their nighttime temps 😂. That’s right we had a really cold night followed by a night of frost. I didn’t manage to get the girls covered the first night because I didn’t get a frost advisory, but I managed to scrap up a very piss poor cover, water bottles for the frost. To note I know that growing in a pot on a brick or stone patio or some other thermal mass is a great way to save yourself from cold temps. The thermal mass absorbs the heat during the day and emits heat as it cools off during the night. But my in-laws vegetable garden in a raised bed got murdered by the cold night while my directly in the ground auto seedlings all made her. I’m wondering if the 2ft tall vegetation around them acts as a thermal mass, let me know what you think. Anyway all but 1 of the girls made her this week. My gelato that had the rough start and pulled through got eaten by something, my fault should have had a cage over her and the rest but time has been short. Sorry @greenhouselab I really appreciated the bean man! Just my luck! After she managed to pull through she’s gone like that, the strain I was looking forward to growing the most! I think a bird got her. PS is this a contender for DOTM? Also I’ve updated the diary for those following, but in a week I’ll likely delete. First few weeks are slow, it’ll get interesting trust me!
