We have heavy clouds, I'm hoping they'll hold in some warmth, even a little bit will help!DrakeMaiden said:Wildsky said:I found another jug thingie, all tomato's are covered - and it SNOWED ON ME when I was out there covering them up!!!!!!!!!!Wishing you luck tonight! Here I was thinking that our 30 degree morning this week was bad news! Some of our young trees got nipped, but I guess it is better than 20 with wind! I'm hoping it doesn't really get to 20.

Yes! And if it keeps snowing that is extra insulation too!Wildsky said:We have heavy clouds, I'm hoping they'll hold in some warmth, even a little bit will help!
Polish... I can't wait to see how they turn out. I hope they're both girlies!DrakeMaiden said:Adorable little chickies . . . what are they?
You're brave! I would have booted my husband out! I covered my tomato's with milk jugs earlier today - the wind was just beating them up!lalaland said:brrrrr! spent an hour in the pouring rain covering strawberries, asparagus, and garlic with straw, and covering the blue berry bushes which are in bloom. sopping wet, and the straw sticks to wet jackets.
threw everything in the wash, took a hot bath, built a fire....am just warming up.
the apple chart was great - it is only going to get down to 30 supposedly, so the apples should be ok. I gave up before I got to the cherry trees, they are so young that even if all the blossoms make it, I'ld only get a handful of cherries anyway.
got the coop ready for a cold night - thinking the hens won't go out in the morning when they see the snow, so had to add water and feed inside. Hens are sopping wet, feathers plastered to their skin and you can see a lot of skin! turned the heat lamp on so when they decide to go into the coop it will help them dry off.
hope they don't get pneumonia!
