I always had a piece of fleece handy for such occasions!

I've got some big sheets of bubble handy, but am also away for a night, so (classic gardener's dilemma) do I risk them chilling at night without or cooking in the day with? Argh!

Tee Gee:
Prop up / support the plastic to ensure it is not touching the plants/ tubers this will allow movement of air around any leaf formation.

terrier:
My dahlia tubers are in the cold greenhouse and don't seem to be any worse off. If you are worried about being away for a day or so, just bring them into a cool shady place (shed or indoors), that should do them no harm.

gray1720:
Good points both - ta for the tips!
