I use grow lights, full sun windows, and some outdoor time\u00a0when it is warmer and sunny to help them grow. Once the threat of frost has passed I plant them in the garden beds that will be their home for the summer.<\/p>\n<p>What though\u00a0if you had to plant a bit early, before the danger of frost has passed? This can be the case for a variety of reasons. Perhaps your seedlings got too big and needed to go in the ground. Maybe a flat overturned and rather than\u00a0lose the seedlings you decide to plant them. Or maybe your perennials got an early start due to warmer than usual weather and they need protection. If you have plants in the ground when a frost advisory is issued then you need to take steps to protect them. Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<p>* Water well\u00a0before night falls.\u00a0The soil will release moisture through the night, keeping the air temperature near the soil warmer.<\/p>\n<p>* Use a fan to keep air circulating around your plants and prevent frost from forming.<\/p>\n<p>* Create a tent frame using wood stakes, garden tools, or whatever you have on hand. \u00a0Cover with weed fabric, a plastic tarp, or a bed sheet. Remove the next morning.<\/p>\n<p>* A thin layer of straw can help protect plants and seedlings as well.<\/p>\n<p>* Recycle plastic juice and milk jugs and use them as cloches to cover your seedlings.<\/p>\n<p>* You can also buy them on Amazon.
