Must have tomatoes, must have tomatoes

Those poor babies! hehe

We are supposed to have an ice blast on the way, so mine are inside with the heater nearby. I am determined to not plant out until April 17 with a good week long forecast. That saved me last year in the late April blast.

Dale Nelson In Corpus is usually extremely wrong.. But cover em .. Mine are tucked in.
Despite all my precautions so far my control tomato plant(never gets protection ) is still as healthy if not mor helthy (Less joseling and risk of broken tips) Than my protected plants.

Mine are all covered by my clay pots and about 15 coffee cans. Mine does look funny though.

I pay no attention to Dale Nelson. Weather underground is where I start and I also pay attention to the National Weather Service out of Corpus.

I pay attention to Everybody. I also know my microclimate, and listen to every opinion, and incorporate the 2 together. If there seems any possibility after adding it all up there may be a frost or freeze, I'll cover up, no questions asked.
