and tommarrow night. Temps dipping into the mid-upper 30's...... What a crappy spring/summer so far In Minnesota, this is by FAR the latest I've had to worry about frost, A few years ago I have frost on June 5th and I though that was late.

WOW I guess my 40 degree nights aren't as bad as in other places. I would be scrambling to do a make-shift greenhouse if I were you! Growth is sllooowwwww here in Wisconsin. The forecast looks somewhat promising next week. Darn weather.

Just checked on my 537 Hildebrant at my north patch, and some time in the past few nights, it was hit by frost. It will probably survive, but has taken some damage.

It's almost July for crying out loud. This really sucks.

You can turn on your sprinklers periodically during the night to reduce frost damage.
