29 degrees last night in New Mexico! Wow! Sorry your garden was ruined

 

[teach1rusl]

Lordy...I would be devastated after all the work I've put into my garden. That surprises me that it drops THAT low in your area this late in the year...

Wow!

29 degrees? I'm sorry you lost your garden.

You can never trust the weather, thats for sure!

I sure feel for you! Seems like spring/summer is never coming and we have gone right back to fall/winter

This past weekend - it snowed all weekend, nothing stuck but still cold, windy and snow.

My garden has not even started cause we have not come out of freezing nights yet - I break ice off of waters every morning.

garden update:
it's now 35 degrees warmer in less than 10 hours, supposed to go up another 5-7 degrees. seriously, from 29-82 in the same day?

doesn't look like a total loss after all but still not good...

Tomatoes - 9 dead, 7 might make it
Peppers - 6 dead, 2 struggling
Cucumbers - all lost;
Squash - 2 dead, 5 doing fair;
ground crops and greens seem fine but shocked.
beans hadn't sprouted yet.

sigh.

Wow - you all have some cold nights. I am in Alaska and it is nice and warm (40 - 50) at night here!

I always plant on May 15th and sometimes loose a plant or two to frost. This year I lost 2 marigolds, which is not bad considering I planted 500 - 600 plants.
