Workers who have to move from place to place to collect remote assets won't have to waste time waiting for a system warm-up: the Juno T41 G tests at an average cold start of less than 38 seconds, and a
warm start of less than 6 seconds.
ALTHOUGH the
warm start to the year initially raised hopes of a good harvest, frosts in April and cold rainy weather in May and June reduced pollination and led to losses of remaining fruitlets.
This can provide protection from the frost, help give the plants a
warm start, and protect tender new growth from pests.
Meteorologists say that several weather patterns, including La Nina, were the direct cause of the
warm start to 2012.
The
warm start to 2012 is a world away from the treacherous snow conditions that blighted the region just over a year ago.
They are covered with more potting soil and watered with warm (not hot) water because the potting soil is cold and I figure it might feel good to the seeds to get a
warm start. I count the seeds when I plant so I can make note of the germination rate (the number of healthy seedlings times four gives the percent germination; any number will do, 25 just makes it easy).
After a
warm start to the ski season that delayed openings of many resorts, the storm arrived just in time for Winterplace Ski Resort's season debut yesterday in southern West Virginia.
