Adam Busby Heat Hack: Keeping Texas Palms Cozy In Cold Snaps

OutDaughtered star Adam Busby lives in a nice home in the League City area of Houston, Texas which currently experiences unusually cold weather. So, worried about his palm trees, he gave  TLC fans a tip on how to keep them alive. 

TLC Fans Know Adam Busby Loves His Yard

OutDaughtered fans saw that Adam and Danielle urgently needed a place to stay when the old home became infested with mold. It meant that they ended up in their new home. The pool and outdoor entertainment area became a big feature of their lives. 

Adam Busby keeps himself busy with helping the quints get ready for school. And, he loves his photography work. But, he does find the time to keep his garden looking good. In particular, he likes the palm trees by the pool. But, the weather in Texas suddenly turned cold. So, he tried to find a way to save his precious palms. 

Adam Busby Shares A Heat Hack For Palm Trees

On Monday, TLC fans who follow Adam on Instagram saw that he shared a very handy hack for people who live in the South. In his reel, he explained that it was nice and warm one day but the next day, with the wind chill factor, the temperature was probably in the 20s. 

Adam Busby wrote in his caption:

It never gets cold like this in Houston where we live, so these palm trees aren’t used to weather like this. most of the week the temperature is gonna drop down into the single digits with the possibility of a few inches of snow on Tuesday here. This is a good little hack that I learned to keep from losing these expensive palm trees that I really don’t wanna pay to replace.

Here’s the hack. Adam Busby uses “heat tape”  which you can get “from Amazon.” In colder areas, it’s used to stop pipes from freezing. Or, folks run it along the edge of the roof to stop snow from building up. So, you just need to “wrap it around the trunk” of the palm tree and switch it on to keep the tree warm. 

TLC Fans Respond To Cozy Palm Hack

OutDaughtered fans reacted to the heat hack, and people in the northern states confirmed they use heat tape to help keep their homes warm. One of them said they do the same thing as Adam in “The Netherlands.” Here are a few more comments:

• Heat tape only works about 2 seasons then it is junk. Not sure why, but only a temporary fix.
• We wrap our pipes in it in our basement. Poor palm trees.
• Good idea for my chicken coop.
• Cool idea…
