Great success with your protection Scott.
Congratulations.
PS--buy yourself a belt.
Almost saw more of you than the plumber... :bootyshake:
It'll be good to see the rest of your yard soon.
Welcome back.

Good job scotty! What exactly do you wrap the outside with? IT sounds like duct tape when you cut it, and im pretty sure it isnt a tarp...
The temps are moderating up here. After tonight no lows below-10C (that would be like you not getting below 0C i guess lol) As soon as the snow stops and i get some sun, grafting and pruning season and hopefully I can unbury my bamboo.

Scotty, did you do a video when constructing it?
Wondering what you used for the frame.
Good to have you back.

Good job Scotty
Looking forward to the palm jailbreak-none scheduled yet
even after having the Needles and Sabals out for a few weeks.
Barb is just mad that if you show your :bootyshake: she will have to too
😳 😆

Nice job on the enclosure. That palm is looking great. Cant wait to see everything else.
Posted : 20/02/2013 2:39 pm
Hey Scott-looks really good and I am sure way easier to construct than those old enclosures
Good Job

Hey everyone. Thanks for the comments. It's just a heavy duty tarp I use to wrap the palms in. I bought it from an industrial supplier. I also have one layer of shirk wrap around it first. I have lots of videos on my YouTube channel and a couple before and after videos when I wrapped the palms in November if you want to check them out!
Here's to an early spring for all!

Scotty,
I'm not that familiar with searching Youtube videos...always get lost.
Can you please provide the link to the construction?
