    Any SE Texas or at least Gulf Coast growers?

    first time grower here, in SE Texas where it is very hot and humid in summer, and this climate stretches all the way to Key West so surely there are others growing in this same sauna. i read about mold being a problem in hot humid areas, and i am sure there are other issues, so looking for...

    Total Noob - hot outdoors growing

    i was given Dosido Cookie seeds, and a little research says it needs to be 70-80 degrees for outdoors - and somewhat humid, so if i am Houston and it will be 90's and humid all summer - will it kill the plant? or just not be as potent? or will sunshade help? i am a fairly proficient vegetable...
