The monsoon basically failed. The only upside is the warmer winters. I hope I don't live to see another of those "northers" running down the eastern Rockies and dropping our temps to 0, although we are presently getting some rain from that big snow that hit Montana up north.

I heard that storm brought as much as 50" of snow to some places up North. Pretty impressive for the first part of Fall. My area only sees snow a few times a year and it is usually gone fast. On occasion though we see some real snow and a deep freeze.
I hear that we are slipping into a Grande Solar Minimum slowly over the next few decades. It will be interesting to see which way things unfold. If it is true expect to see more geological activity in all forms and more hurricanes (for me on the coast).

Tj Jefferson wrote:I want them all... I was more involved with NAFEX and sometimes you could pledge cuttings on there. I haven't checked in on it recently. The problem is that you really need dormant cuttings and then a misting bed. I have six that are doing well, not entirely sure they are labelled correctly, and I've sent some cuttings. I have two Brown Turkey (which he must have labelled as something else) varietals, one that came as "Nero" which is any black fig, the LSU purple and Gold (and gold is looking crappy), chicago is thriving.
I should have some this fall/winter. They are easy to get right after they go dormant in November.

As for the crazy weather I am seeing two Banana, that I thought were just ornamental, growing bananas.

.... What we are experiencing now is the continuation of this long known about trend, the polar ice melting will effectively shut down the warm currents we have depended on for surface temperature regulation for centuries.

I am curious what will happen here! The climate in the Netherlands is depending so much on the warm ocean current, if (when?) that current will stop, or turn another direction, what will the weather here do? Probably we won't even see ... because all country will be under water. Where I live (Meppel) is exactly at sea level now. Interesting!

Thank you Redhawk. I hope this mycorrhizae will show up on their own. I'll add a lot of mulch to promote that.

Here is a record chart of the Earth's atmo carbon over just the last 800,000 years. It is proving hard to find a chart that goes further back for you when the Earth was warmer. It was Many Times higher than today.
You may notice that each of the spikes in the chart coincides with the warming periods of this ice age... about once every 100k years. Even though it is cooler right now than previous warming cycles the atmo carbon is going higher.

Here is a link to a study performed by NASA. Pinpointing the regions of earth producing the most carbon into the atmosphere...
