    Saturday night's frost might've killed mine, despite my 'protection'. They were frozen to a crisp on Sunday. And no frost was forecast!!!! :mute:

      Yep, just as I was thinking whilst at the plot a while ago - hot weather plus drying/damaging winds, not the weather for planting out French beans, runner beans, courgettes/pumpkin/cucumbers/squash/etc.
