Cooler nights coming

[Rich Z]

Forecast for Sunday night is 34 degrees on one site, and 36 degrees on the other. We are normally a few degrees colder than those forecasts.

So yeah, that will be just great. Some of our citrus trees are trying to recover from that Christmas freeze by putting out new growth where they can, and we will have this cold spell come through and kill off that new growth.

I guess 2023 is not going to be any better than 2022 was. And I really didn't, nor don't, have high hopes anyway.

I just never see temps like that.

Well, Connie's lemon trees certainly didn't appreciate the cold this past Christmas....

And the youngest of our pumelo trees got smacked really hard, then started showing this phenomenon. I have NO idea what is going on with this. But it certainly can't be good.

Greening sickness killed everything where i live back in 05. Not one tree left in my hood. Shocked it has not killed your tree's.

Ah yeah, the citrus greening disease. And yet another "gift" from our Asian "friends". Most people don't realize that biological warfare has been going on for quite a long time. IMHO.
