Appreciate the warning Bill. I'll pass that knowledge on to them as they may not know it. I'd hate to see all their crops get fried at this stage of the game, especially since we heading back up in temps this week.

Thanks for that information Drew.
I've made a note of it. Might work a lot better than milk, which only seems to work a little bit.
