No sign of frost here at 8:45 this morning. It's possible that we got some and it disappeared before being hit by direct sunlight, but unlikely, and it didn't even feel particularly cold when I went out to remove the tarp from my raised bed.
Netweather still says it hit -1 but I'm not so sure it did. Tue/Wed, Wed/Thur and Sat/Sun are now the nights to watch out for, after that it should be mild and wet.Tried and Tested...but the results are inconclusive

No frost here either - blue sky, sunshine.
Drew back the curtains, the sun streamed in and I found myself singing:-
Morning has broken
Like the first morning,
Black bird has spoken
Like the first bird.
Praise for the singing!
Praise for the morning!
Praise for them springing
Fresh from the Word! etc
The dogs put their paws over their ears as usual!Last edited by veggiechicken; 01-04-2012, 09:59 AM.

Frost here.
Wasn't I supposed to wait until after the frost was gone before planting outdoors?
Mostly seeds (though I do have a crop of broadbeans which were planted months ago and are flowering)...Last edited by MyLifeWithAndrew; 02-04-2012, 07:55 AM.My Very Bleak Garden Blog

Tatties are earthed, fleeced and tarped for the night, as we have got the next six nights of 2 degrees C. Broadies and peas take their chances and so will my fruit trees, except the figs who have zip up fleecy jacketsLook deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better...Albert Einstein
