Earthing up will produce more potatoes not just protection from frosts, so dont stop earthing up just because of frost.

There are 2 other threads on this - but you'll do no harm if you earth up as long as you've got soil or mulch or energy to do it with.

Not so important - & virtually impossible! - when the rows meet together.
