WhistlingBadger:
Better hose everything down. Sometimes that'll save the tomatoes from a light frost.
HH~:
No tomatoes in yet. They in cups I take in and out.
Most years they are already in ground!
Not in the year of the Virus! Be late canning season for sure. Corn is up here about 5-6” in field. Beans are same. Wheat has tassled.

Oh well, I reckon I could come up with enough dandelion flowers to make wine if I tried hard enough - but I have work to do on the deck, thinning the hops, and packing up to move! Oh, just remembered I don't really like wine, except mead! (lol)

Eric Krewson:
I had frost this morning, all the guys at work said if you washed the frost off your plants with a waterhose before the sun came up you could prevent damage. I did that this morning but the frost was light.
Tonight I am going to set up my sprinkler to cover the tomatoes and squash then get up around 4 (old guys get up a lot anyway) and turn my sprinkler on, that should take care of that part of the garden. I can cover the okra and beans with plastic because the plants are small.
Frost in May is way late for Bama.
Stoker:
Flowers bust open on plum and cherry trees. Don't need any snow till they are pollinated.
Thanks Leroy
