What would be a good way to protect my in ground seeds I just threw down? Temps are supposed to reach 37 in BR by tomorrow morning and 45 by Tuesday morning.

Probably should've waited to put anything down. I'm talking about regular herb and wildflower seeds.

I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. It might get below 40° for a couple of hours, and soil temps will be even slower to react.

They’ll just sit there in the soil until they’re ready.

I had 70 degrees yesterday and this morning it was 26 degrees. It is now 43 degrees.

Did you just broadcast them or plant them? If they are in the ground, they should be fine. If on top, toss some pine straw on them.

Got up at 5am to workout. Temps on the car never got below 43 degrees so that’s nice. Even though the weather app says 40, I’m pretty sure BR get it’s weather readings from BTR so it’s not necessarily indicative of the actual temperature near me.
