Super great video for different materials and methods to use for frost protection. Thank you both for creating such great videos! Too cold for warm weather crops here, but the methods you show should help for protecting the cool weather crops from the some of the colder temperatures. Thanks! đ±
My hubby didn't know why I wanted the moving blankets a friend gave me. That was my idea. To use for cover for my plants. Thanks Kim!!
Gonna try this with my squash!
