okay so for about two weeks now i've been telling everyone that we're going to get
one more snow in like normal in colorado and lo and behold it's gonna start raining sometimes
night and then by around five o'clock tomorrow it's going to start snowing
and it's going to stop around 11 o'clock in the morning well if
any of that snow hits any of this any of my corn that's just starting to pop it's going to
be extremely detrimental you know right now i have i obviously started a few seeds early got those in
right here what i'm gonna have to do is i'm gonna be end up throwing plastic over here i'm
not gonna be totally concerned about my potatoes because actually i don't see them popping just yet
so i think they'll be fine to survive tomorrow and then i'll be covering this up with plastic
throwing this a little plastic over this as well and then i'll be putting plastic over my main beds
i'll also be cinching down my shade cloth right here a little better as well as
just fortifying kind of everything i'm not totally worried about my garlic because that's not popped
up yet um and i'm not totally concerned about a little bit of snow hitting hitting them but since
the shade cloth is going to be over everything for the most part is going to be keeping the ice
off and because it's going to be snowing tomorrow with a ambient air temperature about 38 i'm more
concerned about the snow hitting the the surface of the leaf or the then i am concerned about the
the temperature of the ambient air so let's see if i get through the winter or let's see if i get
through this last snow and go from there okay so some people might think that i might overdo it a
little bit and that might be true what i did here was i took some plastic and i covered up my plants
because tonight it's going to start to snow roughly around 5 p.m and it'll stop around 11
tomorrow and that's may 22nd here in colorado the reason why i ended up putting the plastic
up isn't just because i want to protect my plants it's because my garden is a reflection of
myself and my desire to improve things and want to do better it's my own desire to be
a healthier human being and this garden just isn't like okay i'm gonna throw some seed down
i'm gonna grab get some food and i'm going to get my money out at the end of this because
there might be a good chance i might not get all my money that i've put into this garden but what
i am going to get out of is i'm going to get my religious discipline on being able to take care
of something and bring life into this world i know this might sound a little bit hoboey or
or hippie-ish but when you go through life and you begin to be more religious around taking care of
things you begin to take better care of yourself anyways i got one more plastic i got to do for
my corn because when the snow hits if they're in if there's any snow that hits any of this leaf uh
it's going to kill it through obviously freezing the tissue of the leaves so got one more plastic
to do and then i'm gonna tie down all the plastic make sure it doesn't fly away and we will continue
to keep firing for another day all right let's get into it so the snow is actually supposed to start
in about six hours from now and it just started just it decided to start to hell
actually around 12 o'clock i should know better should have been a little better prepared but
anyways i just threw that down the last tarp and you know we'll see what happens i did have extra
seats planted so i didn't put my entire stock outside i can replant hopefully i don't have to
we'll see see what happens okay so things are holding up pretty well as of right now
it is snowing having to come out here and check the water it being collected all that's frozen
but as you can see the difference right this is frozen but because this is right underneath
it's just holding some temperature and that seems to be holding pretty
well a little water build up over there should probably get that fixed
and i really like this actually these little poles was able to keep the plastic pretty heavy and
now that the heavy water sagging really fall in so one day at a time let's see where it goes
oh did you do you want to go into the whole uh mcma problem real quick about what's going on
over there sure so in in the state of michigan right now the current legislation that they're
trying to push it would make it very restrictive on homegirl rights it would reduce homegirl
rights especially for caregivers and it's going to restrict access to even patients
