But my question is did you try to beat the system?
In the 80's we had a warm spring I planted out everything, early. On May
10th we had 24 in of heavy wet snow. Lost all my non- frost hardies. Never
tried to beat the system again.

And a foolish question, did the weather liars tell you it was coming? In a
grow bag I would have found room inside for a few days.
