DTG printing through Garden Grove's year
With 39 days a year at 90°F or above, pale cotton tees stay coolest and can often print without a white underbase. August highs average 87°F but December lows average 46°F, so a crewneck earns a place next to the tee, and its flat, pocketless front takes a bigger print. About 12 inches of rain a year leaves most weekends dry for events, and DTG prints their small runs, a date or name on each shirt.
