Snow Plant

My daughter's 1016 Christensen plant isn't in a hoop house. It's just in a wall-o-water. Well, this morning when we got 6 inches of snow, the top of the WoW was a bit "open", not pushed together like a teepee. When I went out to look at it the 1016 had a good two inches of snow on top of it. Right on the plant!

This afternoon I went to check again. The temp is up to around 50 and everything is melting. The plant is fine! Although the temp on the surface of the plant was likely very close to 32 degrees, it wasn't below that and now the plant really looks healthy.
