Some years the ones in April don't get frosted on and I have lots of early tomatoes. Other years, they have been frosted on but you know, I have probably have had less than a handful ever die. Mostly they get set back just a bit and end up about the same as the ones planted in May timing wise. I think as long as it isn't a hard hard frost or they don't get frosted on in the first couple days after planting, tomatoes are more hardy than people give them credit for. Of course you can always hedge your bets and place a bucket or wall-of-water over them at night when a frost is expected.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214319366049620074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-48326604644957938712011-04-30T07:19:46.471-05:002011-04-30T07:19:46.471-05:00Congrats to J16!

It seems here that the last frost date is actually about a week past the "published" date since I've been keeping track on a calendar the past few years. I'm sure your tomatoes will love the natural sun being outside, even if only for awhile!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1412316033303635508.post-71027490917631864842011-04-29T23:30:29.378-05:002011-04-29T23:30:29.378-05:00Ooo..you ARE brave. lol

They were full of buds at the beginning of the day, and by early afternoon, the purple flowers were open.<br /><br /> I love this time of year. I'm sure ready for it to stay warm tho!Akanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00513632434353119491noreply@blogger.com
