I now use wax fire logs that I buy at Canadian Tire or RenoDepot and place them every 20 feet. With wet straw to make enough smoke. In the past I was using real wood but I stoped. The reason is explained on my friend the Littlefatwino's web site..<BR>

The temperature went down to 0C at 5 am and strarted to climb all the suden with the lake effect and wind coming from the City of Ottawa. Nos dammages at all in Aylmer. But in Mont�bello it went down to -1C. I pruned these vines at the end of april and they are late in Montebello. The Frontenac are also having a second life regarding frost. So the dammades are not too bad. The Vandal Cliche resisted the -1C. That is all what they resist these stupid vines... The Sabrevois resisted also the -1C. Well I am sorry. No second millenium story Guys! So I will have enough wine for the Lusksville Growwiner.<BR>> > FUMEWEB: http://site.voila.fr/aveo/ http://site.voila.fr/aveo2/ <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > Date: Wed, 28 May 2008 11:52:03 -0400From: RStJean@NRCan.gc.caTo: dbriden@magma.ca; growwine@littlefatwino.comSubject: Re: [Growwine] freeze <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> > In Cantley Quebec just north of Gatineau, it was -1C this morning and roofs were white along with some ground frost.
