Does anyone else at 5doves think that there might possibly be a 1 year gap between the blowing of trumpet 1 in Rev. 8:7 and the blowing of trumpet 5 which announces the 3rd woe in Rev. 9:5.  You will note that with the blowing of trumpet 1 ALL the green grass is burned up along with one third of the trees when hail and fire mingled with blood are cast upon the earth.  So how long does it take for green grass to come back?  Would it take 1 year?  

 

Then after the blowing of the 5th trumpet, the locusts released from the bottomless pit are told not to harm the grass of the earth or any green thing, neither any tree so the green grass must have grown back which is why I was wondering if it took a year for green grass to grow back.

 

Also is all the green grass destroyed on the entire earth along with one third of the trees, or is all the green grass just destroyed in the area that one third of the trees are destroyed?  I also wonder if all the green grass being destroyed would include the cereal grasses and food crops, such as, corn, wheat, barley, rice, & rye as well as the grasses that animals eat, such as, timothy, clover, & alfalfa, etc.  If so that would represent a worldwide famine if all these grasses were destroyed all over the world.  Both man and beast would starve.  However, if all the grasses destroyed were only in the area where just a third of the trees were destroyed, then there would be famine and hunger in that area.  However, it might affect other areas as well depending where the grasses are located that are destroyed.
