I'm sure someone has asked and answered this already.. BUT.. Our weather has taken a quick turn and I am unsure what to do.And with all of ya'lls experince I know I can get an answer here. Our temps are gonna be in the high 30's tonight.. I am wondering if I need to dig up my Burmese Blue? I know some of the ones I have will be alright but if someone could just help me out I would sure appreciate it.

Default Re: Is it time?

If you suspect any chance of a frost tonite then I would say you need to protect them all. If they freeze just once then you may loose the chance for them to fruit. I suggest you start thinking about digging them up or putting them in a greenhouse. My temps are still in the low 50's at night and I already have mine in the greenhouse with heater staying at a toasty 80 degrees. I definitely recommend a greenhouse to all who have the space for one.
