Got all my cycads out of the greenhouse, cut all the brown leafs off and put a scoop full of cow manure on the soil and watered well. They will be in the greenhouse again until maybe 2 more weeks when I will landscape.
Wish me luck.

Kick start early Wes. Good luck. Our weather looks good for at least 10 days out. I have had 100's of palms and cycads (cold hardy stuff) under my covered patio for weeks. Gettin' an early start.
I'll either cover it or bring it in if it gets too cold.

OP, I am amazed that the Foxtail you gave me does so well in the Greenhouse at night. 40's for lows and it has not gotten a brown leaf yet. Still growing strong.

Honestly, with the new baby, I am just too dang lazy 😀
I'll work on it a bit.
