Frost tonight, covered nothing?
Gardeners lose tender plants to surprise frosts. Forecasts get missed.
1. The problem
Gardeners lose tender plants to surprise overnight frosts yearly. Forecasts get missed routinely. Covering takes minutes if warned. Seedlings die needlessly. The hardest part is hyperlocal warnings timely. A forecast might miss microclimates. That uncertainty makes it hard to save plants.
“Frost kills tender plants yearly. I need postcode alerts with cover lists.”
2. What exists
Weather apps, frost blankets and memory protect gardens, while frost kills yearly. Apps warn broadly. A blanket might sit unused. There is little help with plant-list alerts plus cover checklists for gardeners.
3. The solution
The solution could be a save-the-tender engine. It could warn frost nights per postcode. It could list vulnerable plants instantly. Cover checklists could guide fast. The goal would be mornings with live plants.
