Chester B Posted July 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 Well we got a surprise bit of rain, about a quarter inch over the last 36 hours. Weird summer as its been so humid this year and this bit of rain just bumped it up to about 80%. Normally we'd be 30-40% and less when its real hot. Pineapple broom got planted and hopefully its happy in its spot. It's been growing pretty well in the pot, but I have to imagine it'll be that much quicker in the ground. Really looking forward to seeing this one develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse PNW Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 It rained yesterday and a tiny bit within the previous few days. Unseasonal for sure. Last year this time, we were in a drought and they'd banned fireworks due to the fire hazard. Watching a documentary on the Amazon, the narrator said that scientists have estimated that over 50% of the rain that falls in the Amazon comes from evapotranspiration from the vegetation. I say we cover the PNW with broad-leafed jungle plants to try to get some rain here in the summer. The humidity might also create a greenhouse effect giving us warmer, more humid summers. Terraform the PNW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
