I have a small, 8 x 8 x 6 portable greenhouse. Stupid me, I moved my plants out there on the 1st of April forgetting that I live in Michigan and just because it's 70 one day doesn't mean it won't be 25 the next.
I put a space heater out there because it was supposed to drop to 19 last night. When I went out this morning, it definitely felt warm (above 70), but my thermometer said 48. I thought my thermometer might be broken so I put another one out there. This one is a remote that has a base unit in the house. Right now it is 46.8 F out there according to the remote sensor. It is 28F but the wind chill (really feels like) is 13F.
I don't have anything REALLY tender out there. I have some morning glories, cedar saplings, pussy willows and that's about it. I moved them out so I could start my annuals in the basement. I really don't have room to bring them back in. At what point should I bring them in and cover every flat surface in my house??? Do I need to worry if it stays above 40F in the greenhouse? I just don't want to waste all that time/money/work on my babies if they are going to freeze!!
Thanks so much,
Michelle
