I lost 18 plants last night to the FROST in CT. Plants were covered
with greenhouses.
Some will live but be very stunted. May not replant and take thje year off.

Down to 28 here last night, windows covered with blankets kept the Squash
family fine. I've found that blankets over windows protect down to 18. Apple
Crop sustained some damage. I still have 2 more years to wait until my soil
is disease free to try Pumpkins again. The only ones that are immune are
Frosty (Bush Type) & Baby Bear.
