1st snow I put 5 gal buckets over them, took them off between snows
and the top 2 " of leaves look very sick, before I could figure out
what to do the 2nd blizzard hit, I put the buckets back on, will take
them off today after work, lows tonight should be back in the 30's and
highs around 60.

Have I killed the plants, will they come back? Do I trim what looks
like frost-bite on them?
Please help out here if you can? Either directly or on the board.


Thanks in advance

I'd just let them be for a few days and see what happens. *It's possible
they didn't like being in the buckets.

Update:

Snows pretty well gone now, took buckets off the plants. and all the
leaves look wilted and ready to
fall off the stock, guess I will cover things with some hay and cross
my fingers, as for what kind of grapes they are both seedless
variiety, purple and red (hate green grapes) I will let everyone know
if they make it, Probably get a couple more
plants and add to the row, other than cold weather, what else do I
need to know about these plants any hekp would be appreciated.

If your lows are in the 30's leave the buckets off and don't bury the
vines.
