Allotment secretary is warning us of ground frost - London area.
Do we really need to protect our potatoes?

Donno about a ground frost, I'm not going out to find out. Current
air temp is -0.2C but it was down to -1.1C at 2218.

Humm, glad I didn't put the beans in today, then.

Overnight air min of -2.9C... But bear in mind we are only half way
through the full bloom of daffs and it's just the the early trees are
breaking bud.
