Frost??

This is insane. I just planted my squashes, melons, cucumbers, peppers and okra. None of them tolerate frost. And we're expecting FROST! Again! I'm speechless.
So what else will Mother Nature throw at me?

  1. Just wow. We're heading for a 39F, which is really low for us, but hopefully no more freezing nights. Mother Nature really has had it in for us already this year. Between the weather and the garden destruction, you just can't seem to get a break. Dare I say "It can't get any worse, it has to get better"?

    2. follow up - no damage other than some basil but it's easy to regrow so i'll consider myself lucky this time around. And hope you're right, it has to get better.

    5. Well, it's good there has been no more damage, but it's sad you cannot trust your neighbors.

  3. Hi Jenny! I just found your blog! It's great! I hope don't mind, here's a link to a post I did last year ... having a few of these made up and ready to go has saved my plants from late frosts on more than one occasion.

    1. Thank you Deb for the suggestion and welcome to my blog! I will be building hoophouse in the fall but I run out of time for this year.

  4. This weather is all sorts of out of control. I'm not surprised by the frost reported since we had that crazy october snow storm.
