Still don't know where you are Dreamer but we've had frost a lot more recently than that here :(..........and it was only 6C last night, which is cold enough to upset most tender plants :ohmy:

My cabbage are zipped up in the back garden greenhouse along with PSB.  They're not planted out only as I don't have enough netting against birds yet so maybe a lucky escape for them...  Rest of the stuff is a bit vulnerable then I guess?  :ohmy:

cabbage abd PSB are hardy plants so wouldn't mind being planted out.
It's all the courgettes/pumpkins/tomatoes sort of stuff that will struggle till it warms up.
Mine are planted out, but I have plenty of seeds if I do have to start again.

But there's not a lot most people can do for their potatoes, they're too big now to earth up and it's too big an area to even think about fleece :(

Thanks mumofstig, that's a bit of a relief, although my tomatoes are only in a plastic greenhouse on a concrete floor so I doubt if they're too well protected??  We'll all have to keep fingers crossed..  :ohmy:
