I live in Denmark..and the weather was not supposed to be like this.

my plants are about 10 inches now, but the stems are relatively thin. theres a lot of trees and low branches around the spots where I put them, but I dunno if that helps. the temp also dropped to 32 degrees last night.

I've had plants out in -4c and they were OK. I'm north like you. If you can, cover.

came back a little while ago...the forest is all white and I didnt spot the area. Ill have to wait till its better weather outside before I go check on them again.
I see now why a gps would come in handy :)

I have always had this idea...

In my drive way when I have my own house if it is in an area that gets snow I want to embed small strips of tubing that heat up and melt snow on impact. It would probably work well for growing outdoors too!

I plan on getting a greenhouse when I eventually buy a house. the tubing idea sounds cool, but wouldnt that require loads of electricity? or do you have another kind of system in mind?
:peace:

yea straw, do it with my veg garden every year because i always plant too early, if you cover your plant with straw(hay) it will insulate them, the snow won't actually settle on the plant but on the hay.
