Passed away in 2019 https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/obituaries/2019/09/02/robert-lautzenheiser-climatologist-and-scholar-new-england-weather-dies/Wb7Gk1hVJJaBgg2Oim32TM/story.html

I’m not sure I’d fertilize a newly planted tree. Let it get established for a year.

Pounding sleet. 42°

Getting some sleet right now.

Yeah stunning sunrise. I wasn't expecting that much sunshine this morning either. It's all downhill soon.

09? lol…idk I don’t care about mins in the summer though. If it’s 55 or 68, idc. Max temps are what it’s all about. 79/71 does nothing for me when it’s showery and BKN. Give me 82/52 all month.

I'll take the under. The goofus had me wedged in 30s with 2" of rain Wed-Fri this week before caving to the euro. That would probably be 55F for Phin. lol

I don't think I've had a brisk wind with 60s here in the summer since 2007. We do 60F and drizzle well though.

Kidding aside. It's not like it's that nice up here today. Lots of morning sun, but clouds now and mid 50s. I was just happy we avoided the rain since we have plenty of it coming tomorrow night. Wasn't rubbing anything in. lol

Probably not. We beat your guys a lot in the spring. Scooter rage.

Glad we up here.

Yeah nice surprise sun this morning.

Nice sunrise this morning. Glad we today.

Maybe I can hit 70F in Mehy.

I just got an email from Cummins Nursery for 50% off all of their apple, peach, and pear scions. I got 2ea of 6 different apples and 1 type of pear. Apples: GoldRush, Spartan, Enterprise, Sweet Sixteen, Freedom, and Ashmead's Kernel Pear: AC Harrow Crisp Anyone here have grafting experience? I'm planning to just do some cleft grafts onto my existing large apple tree which currently has crap fruit. I'll try a couple of the Harrows on my existing pear trees as well. It's a good way of trying a bunch of different varieties without planting a bunch of trees. I've never done a graft before, but it doesn't look too difficult. As long as 1 of the 2of each variety take I'll be happy.

I have some of both growing from seed. The spruce came from my own existing trees. Unfortunately the voles tore them up in my garage. I have a few dawn seedlings alive in a single pot in my basement. A couple of giant sequoias as well. I have some random trees that I grow. The voles wiped out a lot. I have a few white willows in air pots from cuttings that are growing well. Some need to be upsized. Some of my black walnuts survived the attacks and most of the pawpaws did as well. This year I already have a few chinquapins and macadamia nuts that have their radicles emerged. I have more pawpaws, butternut, and some ginko that are still stratifying. I have a bunch of northern catalpa growing together in a fabric pot that probably needs to be separated and repotted while dormant. If there's a particular tree you like and you don't mind experimenting you can find seeds for almost anything on sheffields. I like the air pots because the roots don't get tangled around themselves like in standard pots. I'll have to show you a pic of one of my willows with the air pot removed. It's a fobrous mass of roots. You could probably grow a cold hard fig down there as well. In extreme cold it may die back, but it would fire right back up in the spring. You seem to be more into ornamentals though.

It may be right though. The 1926 had quite a few cP days. 6/17 up here had a low of 33F and 6/20 had 31F (Franklin COOP).

CON had 36F that day. 1926 has record low mins at ORH on 6/20 and 21 too. Also lots of top 3s right into July. Maybe an unshielded thermo that year?
