G-Whizz! Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hello Good Folks! This might well apply to other areas of the country, but Mrs Whizz has just informed me of severe hot temps are on their way. Considering the time of year, I can only say that it has been coming Looks like from Sunday onwards I'll be growing during the night! 5 Day Forecast. Before I joined this merry band of growers, I used to love the summer sun, and heat. Now Having said that I best be making the most of it cos its only for a few months of the year. Anyway, whatever you people do, don't be cooking those plants!!! Safe growing. Take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Whizz! Posted June 11, 2004 Author Share Posted June 11, 2004 Mist is slowly clearing fellas and I can see some very sweaty men in some sort of soldier uniform, gently fanning themselves, and huffing and puffing... Still, punka wallah is lost on me I'm afraid . Where's Mrs Whizz when you need her??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vlad (the impala) Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 if my memory serves me right, a punka is something like a slice of carpet with a pole along the top, hanging vertically high up in the room, suspended by cords - with some poor sod sitting in the corner, pulling a string all day causing it to "shoosh" back and forth, stirring up the air! -hence "punka wallah" as in "it an't arf ot mum" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
