Dear Hydey,
Please tell me which is the more important factor in a plant’s growth period, temperature or light?
You see, if the greenhouse effect really takes its toll and the Finnish climate will be like what they now have in Central (Germany, France) or even Southern (Italy, Greece, Spain) Europe, there could be one positive aspect in it: we could grow perennials and plants that we only dream about now.
But since there will be no more light in Finland during the dark winter months, can these plants grow? During the lovely Northern summer there is lots and lots of light all day and night, but the plants cannot hoard up light, can they?

Damn thoughtful question, Wilderess.
I look forward to Hydey's response. My guess would be that temp and light are equally important in their own way. A plant without sufficient sunlight - that requires it - would be buggered, I'd've thought.

I'm afraid to say that sunlight is very important although some plants will be better off with the increase in temperature most will require more light as well to flourish. That light could be generated artificially which might enable you to grow the plants you desire.

On to serious matters: Beer.
How many should you have in a day ? I'm not talking about a maximum here but a minimum. What is the absolute minimum daily intake needed to stay alive? What are the effects of short ad long term beer depravation ? What are the first symptoms that you may be lacking beer ?
