    What's your weather like 2026

    I felt really cold today so heating is back on. Still have leccy blanket and fleecy bedding on too. Although the temps aren’t that cold, this wind mixed with rain is most miserable.

    Am i understanding this correctly ?

    It didn't strike me that way at all. Just someone asking for advice, concerned about doing the wrong thing for their plants. In my book that is being sensitive to a plant's needs.:)
