Dear All

The lady on the telly(BBC1) says minus 9 and snow this weekend.
I am scared for all the lovely apple tree blossom and general stuff growing and so forth
can I do anything to limit damage?
Also will it kill my Rhubarb
God i am such a NOOB

[arugula]

Is the snow not only in northern Scotland? I believe she did forecast minus temperatures for more widespread areas though...

[fatcat1955]

Widespread night frost for the UK over the weekend.

Oh ruddy eck!  I only just evicted my tubs of spuds to the great outdoors.  It nearly killed me 

[potatogrower]

i hate this weather!   

i was supposed to go and see my nephew this weekend. he's interested in learning to grow. bought him bamboo sticks, small notebook, roll of string, small green house and was hoping to take him and his siblings to wilkos to buy some seeds and flowers for them. i've been told he so excited...

I can fleece the early spuds in the garden easily enough, but I keep earthing up the others on the plot and the rain keeps washing it off again

[bazh]

Nothing on the plot that needs protecting the spuds were earthed up this afternoon and I'll take a chance on the strawberries just to many to fleece.

However they'll be a bit of fetching and carrying from the unheated greenhouse tomorrow evening

Doesn't look great

[arugula]

The latest forecast I saw was for frost down a central-ish spine of the UK on Saturday night reaching almost down to the northern home counties and leaving all the peripheral and more coastal areas and the south, frost free.

The man just said -2C here in northern England. Will my coriander and parsley survive? Potatoes haven,t shown so that's OK.

[allot2learn]

Minimum of +4C here in Manchester for tonight.  -2 for Sat night though.
The first four rows of my 2nd earlies have just popped their heads up today so I'll give them an earthing tomorrow together with some fleece over my strawberrys.

[kermit]

Do you think I should fleece the flowers on my blackcurrants? They are looking great and I don't want to lose them to the frost!

[solway cropper]

Thankfully supposed to be above freezing here this weekend but a touch of grass frost forecast so I'll fleece the tatties. We had -4 mid May last year and it just nipped the potatoes but didn't kill them. Everything else was fine.

[parttimer]

Metcheck is forcasting -1 Saturday & Sunday morning for us, I guess I'll be breaking the fleece out again.   

[ray7]

Min for here +2 Sat +5 Sun. Going to fleece anyway.
