Our farm once again looks like a strange research plot, with everything swaddled in layers of row cover and piles of straw. I have done all I can do to protect the plants from the upcoming record cold temps. Everything in the field now is technically cold hardy, but plants lose their hardiness in extended hot spells like the one we have had for the past two weeks. I am also concerned about plants bolting prematurely to seed in this erratic weather. We'll see how everything fares in the dry ground, 20 degree nights, and scathing wind...
