My goodness, how can it be so cold again? It is 43 degrees here near Lake Ontario. I will have to check on my tomato plants. Leeks and onion sets are not indanger, and the herbs are all very tough, but the tomatoes!

I save bubble wrap sheets to protect the plants during these cold spells.
For once England is basking in 28C - definitely shorts weather in the garden. Pity it never lasts. Good luck with the toms !

Can you tent them with plastic? Or maybe an old blanket during the night?

They will be planted in straw bales and then tented, if this keeps up.
