Got my 1704 in the ground yesterday and of course it went down to 28 degrees last night. I was ready for it though with a small 200 watt heater and a sleeping bag over the top of the dome. Last year I lost my 1401 Urena to frost on May 30 and I'm not going to let that happen again. I prepared the planting spot by broadforking a ten foot diameter circle and adding humic acid, azomite, kelp meal, bat guano, greensand, seabird guano, and some alfalfa pellets. Hope I didn't over fertilize it.
