anyone know if there's anything I can do to protect young plants from strong winds? big storm coming here with wind gusts up to 60mph expected and I'm concerned it will wreck everything I've planted so far.

@dthompson if sides are high enough, could try a tarp over. If not, maybe bricks or something to add height (or a tomato cage in middle) plus weights on perimeter?

@dthompson hmm... Tomato cage too high for 60mph+. Would create too much of a sail

@dthompson did they survive (or is the storm still incoming/in-progress)? What technique did you end up trying?

@keverets I ended up doing nothing and hoped for the best. seems to have worked out.
