That is what I do, hcmcdole, except that my flats are on pallets to get good air circulation. Some of the blankets are 8x 60' long. They are the spun polyster-but the heavy ones ( I have the light ones too) as is the weed block. The weedblock goes over the white frost blanket and that really stops the frost from damaging the begonias that I put out at the same time as the petunias.

Here is a picture where I have setcreasea under the white blankets and the petunias are to the right , left uncovered. this was last year and we were just starting to move out the annuals. The begonias are in another section. I have had it snow while I have had begonias and petunias out there-but the weedblock does a great job of stopping the blankets from getting wet-
