2024 Mid-Atlantic Garden, Lawn, and Other Green Stuff Thread
dailylurker replied to mattie g's topic in Mid Atlantic
It's almost potato planting time! Saint Patrick's Day weekend is prime time SE of the fall-line. When I lived NW of the fall-line I planted 2 weeks after SPD weekend. Potatoes do great here in MD. Fresh potatoes are delicious! -
My greenhouse doors are wide open and my flowering cannabis plants love it. These plants will be done in 4 weeks, then it will be time to start tons of veggies for the upcoming season. 69 wtf

Late Feb/March Medium/Long Range Discussion
dailylurker replied to WinterWxLuvr's topic in Mid Atlantic
If I were to drive out there this afternoon. Where would you go to see this happen? I was kinda thinking about hiking today. I'm near Annopoils but can drive out there. -
What Went Wrong in Winter 23-24/Base State/Will It Ever Snow Again??
dailylurker replied to WxUSAF's topic in Mid Atlantic
You're definitely weird but that's ok. My first thought is to give you some wisdom filled response about living in the moment and being grateful for the positive things in your life. Then I thought about how you probably have heard that kinda stuff your entire life. We all find joy in our own little weird way. Just because you don't think like I do, doesn't mean I need to help you think differently. A lot of people think im weird for wondering around smoking joints in the woods all day while its snowing. I hope you get lots of digital blue and exciting PBP's in your future. Stay weird, my friend. -

March and the first 2 weeks of April are hands down the shittiest 6 weeks in this area. Super boring weather.

2024 Mid-Atlantic Garden, Lawn, and Other Green Stuff Thread
dailylurker replied to mattie g's topic in Mid Atlantic
Feed more micronutrients and less nitrogen. Tomatoes love magnesium and calcium. They grow less tall and produce better Tomatoes. My plants usually don't get taller then 6' but produce about 75 pounds of Tomatoes. I grow heirloom verities. Try starting seeds the last week of March and plant them once it's 60 or above at night. You'll have bigger, better quality Tomatoes. The plants will catch up to the early ones and then pass them. I've been growing Tomatoes for 35 years. I've tried just about everything. -

Try planting when it's hot in mid May. Try one or 2 plants this year. They'll outgrow the plants you put in a month earlier and will double the harvest. Guaranteed. I grow 400-500 pounds of heirloom tomatoes each season. -

Too early. They'll be root bound by the time you plant. I start my tomato seeds 6 weeks before planting in mid May. The herbs will need bigger pots in a few weeks. Lots of light. You need real deal, full spectrum LED lights to sustain summer plants during this time of year. I have a greenhouse and grow cannabis during the winter. -

dailylurker replied to WxUSAF's topic in Mid Atlantic
Hopefully next year will be a disaster, worst pattern ever, la Nina, blah blah blah.. than we'll most likely have a great winter. It's always the opposite of what humans expect. Soon as I hear we're in for a great winter I begin to worry lol -
Since winter is dead, we might as well move on. I was day dreaming the other day about spring evenings with rumbling thunder, fireflies and outdoor cannabis plants. I'm a fan of general thunderstorms. I love a good late night summer thunderstorm, especially when down at the beach.

Presidents' Day Storm of 1979 -- Most Memorable Snowstorm Ever
dailylurker replied to RodneyS's topic in Mid Atlantic
Remember it like yesterday. I was expecting anything. I was out drinking under age at a buddies house. Drive home (I know, not good). When I got out of my car at midnight and looked up. The moon was gone and the wind had picked up in a weird way. I went inside and looked at the local on the 8's. The radar came on and I almost fell over. Their was a monster wall of snow right on my doorstep and racing nw. It went from a few flakes to an inch per hour within 15 minutes of starting. It was wild. I was only 3 months old for the blizzard of 79. My mom said I stared out the window for two days straight. I was born loving nature and all things weather related. -
Presidents' Day Storm of 1979 -- Most Memorable Snowstorm Ever

Is this the one where it was almost 70 degrees the next day? Typical lol. Jan 25, 2000 was my 1979 storm. It happened during the day. -
What Went Wrong in Winter 23-24/Base State/Will It Ever Snow Again??
dailylurker replied to WxUSAF's topic in Mid Atlantic
Jan 25, 2000 was epic here east of DC. Extreme snowfall rates 4-5" per hour at my house. Probably even 6" rates during the peak. I got 21" that day. Forecast was for 3-5. It was Forecast to miss us, the day prior. Sorry for banter lol -
The Weekend Rule? Saturday 2/17 - The Icon Storm
dailylurker replied to DDweatherman's topic in Mid Atlantic
I'm recording this as 1 inch for my total. That brings me up to 12" for the season. Most of that 12" was high quality, long lasting, cold smoke from Jan, so I can't complain. Most likely this is my season total. Better then the past 10 years lol -

I'm just east of DC. I still can't believe we had a week of winter here. That's super rare these days. -

Total bust here. White rain, nothing on the ground and back edge moving in fast. Off to bed. -

dailylurker replied to DDweatherman's topic in Mid Atlantic
One of the tastiest strains in MD. I was out hiking from 1pm-5pm. It was sunny and mild. At about 4 it clouded up fast and it started getting chilly. I was imagining how being lost out there tonight would be humbling if you didn't know the weather was coming in. -

Rug pull here east of DC. I can't complain to much because I jacked twice already this winter. I'll take my white rain and enjoy. -

Anyone want to meet up at 3am? I'll roll a couple joints and we'll hang out under a street light and get lit. -

dailylurker replied to DDweatherman's topic in Mid Atlantic
I remember listening to my weather radio on low volume so my parents wouldn't hear it, while staring out of the window at the street light watching it ripping. I agree 100%. Thank goodness for the internet. I thought I was alone and weird. I'm weird and not alone lol -

dailylurker replied to DDweatherman's topic in Mid Atlantic
This reminds me of a classic event when I was a kid (I'm 45). Go to bed with no snow and wake up with snow! That was normal kids. I wasn't surprised because I was up all night creeping around the house, looking out every window lol -

High clouds are already flowing in from the west. Hopefully that caps the temperatures a little bit. Maybe it helps keep the ground colder as well.
