It is going to be @ or under 20 for the next three nights.
Hopefully 3 shop lights will provide enough insurance to protect the borderline stuff; 75 watts for the small lettuce and arugula bed, 300 watts each for the larger beds. All are directed into a water jug create a radiant mass and to even out the hot/cold spots.
No, I’m not concerned what the neighbors will think. They already think I’m nuts; however the NSA will probably be sending in the black helicopters for a closer look tonight.
With a flash for perspective:
The middle bed has no supplemental heat- it is mainly broccoli, cabbage and brussel sprouts and just the cover should be enough protection for these.

Very cool Cohutt. Or should I say Very Warm? :)~
I need to update my blog so, you can see mine. Makes yours look fancy, lol.
Update it!
Obviously I ditched the idea of using the outdoor Christmas lights. (It would have meant me going to Wal-Mart between Thanksgiving and Christmas, something I try to avoid.)
I know I need to. Work has been really taxing on me lately though and I haven’t had hardly any garden time. Seems like if I’m not working then it is raining in 3o degree temps. I need a new camera too for better picks.
Luckily though I have no shortage of excuses as you can see. :)~
