Just planted out some tomatoes yesterday up at the allotment  :(

[Rhubarb Thrasher]

no frost at the plot last night so far as I can tell, and tonight's forecast similar. Got a good guide for frost - the eco-warriors along from me planted all their squash plants out yesterday

[Barnowl]

The BBC are more optimistic for London than are Metcheck -  they give a 6degC minimum whereas Metcheck give 3degC.

I just won't put out any tomatoes or squash before 2nd May bank hol. Been caught out too many times!  :(

[Gazfoz]

Well my spuds will have to look after themselves, I am knackered and won't be going back to the plot tonight.

[Barnowl]

So far I've only got four tomatoes in up at the plot and I've got spares so I'll fleece the twenty odd I've got in pots outside at home and keep fingers crossed for the others.
