I spent a couple hours after work today covering up all my tender plants to hopefully beat the hard freeze tonight. I'll be damned if as a new homeowner for the 2nd year in a row I lose my Japanese Maple out front (again). This time I put a sheet around it and a slotted black plastic bag. Looks like a ghost on my front lawn!
I am also experimenting with protecting my tomato plants that I foolishly planted last week (last average frost date showed 4/10 here). I have a carpet tunnel with some C2 christmas lights, some covered with straw and others inside my sunbox frame section and covered with carpet. I removed the bulbs everywhere else except where they are suspended in the middle of the tunnel. I also popped several sunbox sections together to completely cover a section of raspberry. I hope to have fruit this year finally.
