Hi Charles The Met Office is forecasting 3°C overnight Tuesday/Wednesday at Castle Carey, near Homeacres, and 4°C in sunny Exmouth. This might well give a ground frost. The early potatoes are well above their ridges and the main crop is also earthed up to the maximum with plenty of foliage above. To fleece or not to fleece, that is the question. This is not the best day, later this evening, for me to be off on holiday for a week, but at least the temperatures in Minorca are 27, with night time lows of 17! If I do fleece the fleece will be tight against the foliage and the frost got through a few weeks ago, but with minimum damage here in Exmouth. An alternative is a double thickness of debris/scaffolding netting, a close mesh which I use as a very effective wind break. I can get someone to take the fleece/netting off on Wednesday after the potential frost and the forecast is better thereafter. Best wishes John
