If you are going to have a quick dash down to the allotment what will you cover up?
Can't decide whether or not to cover the ruhubarb.
well i'm off up there this morning but i've only got broad beans, spring cabbage and potatoes up there and i dont think those need covering do they?
well i cant imagine how i'd cover the bb's cos they're huge!
Rhubarb sits happily outside all year so I don't know why you would cloche it ??? Maybe just put a a little straw around it if you are feeling paranoid.
Cloches are good for getting things a couple of weeks ahead of the season. They'd be good for strawberries, for instance. Rhubarb is so tough and deep rooted that I doubt wheher it would make much difference. You might well find that the temperature a foot down is the crucial thing for it.
