Palm hut in Markham

bananieru · 2010-12-22T09:57:32Z

As you all know we had quite a December here in Ontario. Yesterday we had the first mid day thaw in more than a week, and finaly a picture of my palm hut.I have one set of Christmas lights inside (25 bulbs). Originally it was on a T2 thermocube, but I was never getting -8C, so I put it on all the time. The coldest outside was -16C and inside -4C. Yesterday it was a balmy 15C inside even though outside was around freezing. I turned off the lights manually and put them back on in the evening.I think I'll go and buy a T3.This is the palm in the fall when I started to build the hut:I also have a little waggie. It's very close to the house, so I tried to overwinter it without any heat (if you don't consider the cat):And some canadian maple leafes from the fall:Thank you for looking,Tavi

How the **** did you cook a Trachy in styrofoam?

Here's a link to the cheapest place for Thermocubes(including shipping) I know of.

I bought my thermocubes at Fleet Farm. $8.99 a piece.
