So far we only have a frost warning. I have nothing in the gardens that it will hurt, and I can cover my mater plants outside that I am growing. Temps are supposed to be in the upper 30s here.

Yea my garden is ok But they are calling for temps in the 20's Not sure if my peach and pears will be ok? Oh well sure nothing I can do.



Try spraying 'em with water as the temp passes freezing, encase them in ice so that the lowest temp they feel is 32 degrees F, might minimize losses. (Florida orange growers use this trick, should work for other tree fruits as well
Well as soon as we planted tatoers and made some garden it turn cold & suppose to get frost tonight . We have strawberries in bloom & some little one starting . We have cover them uo & bucket on tomatoes & cabbage. Hope it goes away guick.

We are under another freeze warning again tonight and tomorroe night. Not really unusual for here normally but with the warm weather before the fruit here is really starting to suffer!



Calling for 32 degrees here tomorrow night I hate this changing around so much. Hope we don't get a freeze.

We've got the freeze warnings for 2 nights. Hope all goes well for you guys.
This kind of weather is going to make the cabbage have the BIG HEAD :lol: :lol: :lol:



2 days of hard frost here!!!!! :shock: Im thinking of planting tractor seeds instead of veggies :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Bert don't plant to many seed in the row.
hate for you to have thin tractors out , :lol: :lol:



Upper 30 are forecast for us for the next 2 mornings, and some cooler mornings next week. It's payback time I guess. :roll:
Finally getting normal temperatures here for a week at least. Upper 50s and lower 60s forecast for the week with lows around 40.
Would sure rather see it get back to normal and start warming for the Summer, than keep warming from where we have been. ;)

Dave, a week or so ago one of the local weather guessers said that if comparable warm temps were to occurr this summer, we would be way over 100 degrees. :eek: Don't need that so I too am glad to see a retun to more normal temps.
Got down to 34 last night .The sun is shining brightly here ,and the tempture is 59 degrees here now. Suppose to get down to 32 tonight . We did not get the frost this morning that they were prediting for us.

Had frost here last night. 30 when I got up. Should be the same again tonight. Hope you guys with fruit trees did ok.
Had our strawberries covered up & buckets over the tomotoe plants. Didn't have the frost last night.



Got everything here covered angain tonight. Sure hope they miss the temp if only by a degree or two.
The orchards here are already predicting significant losses.



Whew they missed it again Thank Goodness 35 this morning NO FREEZE!!
