Calvin you won't run into this but for you Northern growers a history lesson

About 20 years ago up in these here White Mountains, The weather was like
Calvins in March
about 3 months ahead of schedule.

After about 3 weeks of it I planted out everything.
On May 10th we had 24in (about 2/3M) of heavy wet snow. Lost all the
non-frost hardies.
Too late to start over, Had to settle for some mislabeled Nursery stuff.

Now I start some extras just in case. Sometimes I win, most times I lose.
