How about for the sake of ME!?!?! The plants are secondary, but it's
definitely in the thought process come retirement.

i just finished reading an article on professional finishing of phals in
commercial greenhouses, and it mentions in passing the considerations of
cost of heating the 'house the further north you go. it got me
wondering how many of you who grow (either commercial or amateur) in the
-ahem- cooler climes have ever considered just picking up and moving
someplace warmer for the sake of the plants? (as soon as i win that
lottery, west palm beach here i come....)

No way. I want 4 seasons. I lived in Indy for a while - They had Ice
season, and gray season and summer. I want snow 2 days on the ground
and gone Spring, Summer, and Fall. High plains of Colorado foot
hills give me that. Under normal winter conditions

I have to admit we almost broke the record for snow on the ground - 60
days this year the record now is 61. That is measurable snow, 1/2
inch or more at the measuring station. It just does not last when
you get 46 degree days, so we did not make that last two days.
