Tomatoes...planted AND covered
I got home from the store and headed straight into garden clothes and out the back door. I planted my tomatoes in the hoop house bed. Got them in and tied to the frame. The wind really felt cool. So, even though I had yet to have anything for dinner and well after 7, I decided I should dig out the plastic and throw it over the hoop house to keep them a bit warmer. That left the ends open. Oh crap, that north wind is cold. Ran to find the frost cloth/remay to cover the north end. And the clips, where are the clips?!! so.. I made three trips to the shed, locking it each time as I was pretty sure I didn't need anything else....uh, yeah, right.

I'm surprised that you still need that protection on your plants in June. Having said that, our night-time temperature went down to 5C on Thursday night.
You did good. I put out one tomato plant today..got the remay over it for tonight. It's still about your same degrees. Late tomatoes this year Erin... love your dedication BTW.
I can be pretty tenacious!!
I hope my plants at home are fine. Visiting Saskatoon and frost warnings last couple of nights. BRR! It has been chilly with the winds!
I hope so too. If you lived here, I'd run over and check for you!!
