They forecast 38 here and it got to 39 I know its only 1% but they have forecast tomorrow to be 40 and also the day after 40. So my dilemma is. What do I do
![Question :?:](./images/smilies/icon_question.gif)
If it gets to 41% do I fertilise or wait thus shortening the time between fertilising. As most plants will not take any nutrients at those temps plus I would be watering.
If I use one of the polymer coated slow release ferts it will probably just burst and release it all.
This is what makes this post so important. As we in Australia have such a vast arrays of Zones.
Most of the literature we read is from the Northern hemisphere. With most authors living in either a mediterranean or colder climate where extremes of heat and dry are not a problem.
Some of the members of Bonsai talk lived in these extremes they understand our problems. So this post is not about who is right or wrong but what they do for there Zone.
Brett is always asking questions as is Jamie. When they get an answer they do not always except it. They then refer to some thing they have read.
As do many of our members.
Graeme who has just joined us after lurking for awhile. Told us of his methods tried and true.
So you can take that that it works not that he read it somewhere. So in my book I will listen to that because it is not second hand.
Now before you rip my b^!!$ out, I am not against reading( it is one of my favorite past times ) or researching a subject.
If you have done this and prove it works then we all benefit, but if you have not, do not pass it on for someone else to try and loose.
To answer what was the opening. I will wait till it cools down as tw or three days, do not make that much difference I have been doing it for years.
Cheers
