    The cheerleading in here by some is patently ridiculous. We are number two in the record books. There isn't much to hang a hat on except the date of the min where some can say they were right. So what? The ice is still in rough shape. Low bar is really low.

    Me standing next to my banana pepper plant. I'm almost 6 feet tall. This guy did particularly well this season.

    First harvest of the season! You can't really judge scale but let me tell you that zucchini is yuuuuugggggge. Tomatoes are all green and most of my peppers are not quite mature.

    Planted last Sunday. tomatoes, peppers, squash varieties. All in all 14 plants. First time planting in ground this year. I found a small space that has been used previously that has some extremely rich soil. This is a property I bought in December, the previous owner must have been a gardener.

    I've got weeds growing in this heat. Makes me want to plant a few things. Looking forward to the last freeze so I can start planting. I have a new property this year where I can actually plant in the ground instead of pots. Also scored some tomato seeds from my grandfather that he planted every year when he was still here.

    The deep freeze is coming. Greenland is about to be in the grasp of the long, cold, and dark winter season. I love this time of year as the cold builds, snow falls and summer retreats.

    Yes, a huge turnaround. We went from way above average melt to average/ very slightly below average melt. His call of 55 - 65% looked pretty good to me based on melt percentage, it's not like he busted. I'm not sure what the point of your posts were. The story of 2015 Greenland melt will be the highly anomolous melt in June/July. It won't be the near average melt that followed.

    It's a substantial number of posters, that was my point. If it's not half then close to a third would be the proper term. You're going to semantics with this post. My point was its not a couple of posters, the amount posters who disagree with the scientific consensus is way more than it should be for a board that discusses science.

    My post was supposed to be in the thread about an ice free arctic. You deleted it so many times when I reposted it for a third time it ended up here. How screwed up is that?

    When half of the votes completely disregard the consensus of the scientific community I'd say that speaks volumes. Lots of deniers around. How about you stop deleting posts that you don't like and stick to deleting posts that break the TOS.

    There is no reason for this post to continually be deleted. Hopefully this third attempt won't be censored. Two years later and this thread still speaks volumes. The amount of climate change deniers who frequent this board is awful. The fact this is a science board is even scarier. You have a large segment of this board and the population living in total denial

    If this were a poll for above 14 I'd vote not in our lifetimes and be around 95% confident. I put the odds around 20% that it happens but like others said it will have to be in the next few years.

    I went with 17/18. If it happens in 16 I won't be shocked. If it takes until after 2020 I would be surprised.

    The western GIS looks ugly.

    Nice work man, I've had success here as well just last week my tomatoes finally turned red and I got to pick some!

    Great pics guys!! I've been harvesting hot peppers for a few weeks now. My bell peppers are about ready to get picked. Tomatoes are all green but I anticipate more than I know what to do with in about a week or two. I plan on harvesting my first zucchini thhis weekend as well. I've had to water by hand nearly every play though, all in all I've found this to be a very rewarding and relaxing hobby. I get home from work and tend to my garden, it's "dirt therapy"

    And caging ~ can anyone give me tips on when or when not to use them? Currently I have them on my two tomato plants and my two oldest & largest pepper plants.
  18. LithiaWx
    Thanks man, I appreciate the tips. Luckily I had read about the extensive root structures of tomato plants and placed them in the largest containers. I did plant the two tomato plants in different sized containers and am finding that the one in the bigger pot is becoming a larger plant. You are correct as well the large containers are expensive, I'm going to try and look out for what you mentioned so next season I can give my plants even more room to grow as I do think I will run into an issue with constraint in at least one of the pots.

    Here is my update guys : The weather has gotten wet over the last few days and my plants are loving the natural rain! I now have 2 tomato plants (big boy), 1 cowhorn hot pepper, 1 green bell, 1 mexibell, 1 big bertha bell, 1 Zucchini, Lavender & chocolate mint. If anyone has some suggestions for my setup please let me know! All tips would be appreciated. I have since changed my method and am only growing one plant per pot. When I began I paired a few of them and it became apparent I needed to pick a winner and cut the weakest plants at the base. The other plants responded nicely to this change and began producing much more fruit buds.

    Impressive, very nice sir!

    Nice work carvers and stove.... My next property will include a medium sized area for gardening...

    Here is a look at my garden. Two tomato plants, three bell pepper varieties and one pot with hot peppers on it. This is my first year at container gardening and I'm already learning from mistakes.
  24. LithiaWx
    Thank you sir. My first attempt, I want to learn
  25. LithiaWx
    I hope I did the pairing correctly.....
