Growing from Seed

Freeze warning.

13 years ago

What time should I cover up the plants, would right when the sun is off of them be ok instead of waiting until dark so I can contain a little warmth around them before it gets colder? The warning is from 12-8 so its a wide range of time. It shows 32 degrees from 3-7am.

Sure it's Ok to cover in late afternoon. I wouldn't wait until dark and try to do it then. Any time we had to cover anything we do it right after supper and we have supper at 4.30
