D2 May 2020 11:46am, 9 May 2020 11,672 posts	0 D2 Question..... the impending "cold snap" ....... I have some tomatoes and cucumbers in my poly-tunnel. I haven't got any kind of heater and its quite flimsy. I'm wondering if I should bring them into the barn until it warms up? What do you all think?

Where I am, Monday night is currently forecast to go down to 3 degrees, I’ll bring the tender stuff in from the greenhouse that night if the forecast stays the same. The other nights say 5 degrees so I’ll leave them out those nights.
