A few of my bananas got burnt leafs after only a couple hours in the 15c 60f sun. Seems I always forget to put them in the shade first for a couple of weeks before sacrificing them to the sun god. Word to the wise for all plants.

I always get anxious and end up burning alot of palms. Yesterday I moved everything into the cold frame because it gets defused sun. I will try 2 weeks and see if they can take full sun by then. Thanx for the reminder!!

its not only plants that get burned. You should see me after a few hours in the sun in April. good renminder though. acclimation to full sun is a test of my patience.
