>> >> I took some pictures of this huge empty space after I was finished and thought this one is going to be good for a long time to come. I started moving cycads in it and it was jam packed in two weeks, and I still needed space.
That might be a record. Two weeks from "huge!!" to "full!!!".
"How many plants DO you have?"
"Only a few ... hundred ... ... thousand."
Yeah, I'm a Northern boy. Winter is when the sun WOULD be low in the sky, IF you could see it through the clouds.
Around Seattle, when you see that "round bright thing in the sky" in a non-summer month, it's usually just for a few minutes and we call it a "sun break". The joke is that everyone throws off their cloths and runs outside to soak up the sunlight.
