TGF announces start of season for new reforestations
Finally the time has come in Panama: the annual dry season is over. Instead of freezing cold, the trees there "hibernate" in scorching heat and little rain. Similar to the temperate latitudes, in Panama the trees lose their leaves and reduce their biological activity. With the end of the dry season, the planting season will begin again.

Update grafana metrics when updating to cardano-node 1.25.1
Cardano's [CAFE] and [CAFE2] are updated to newest version 1.25.1. For all stake pool operators (SPOs) it is important to know that with release of 1.25.1 the mainnet-config.json in the repository of CF / IOHK was consolidated and is a lot slimmer than previous! Some names of statistic variables have changed. In most cases the wording "ChainDB_" was removed. So be sure to update your grafana dashboard so that you can still enjoy your statistics after update to 1.25.1.
