Overview
Frost cover is a removable row cover added as a layer on a Lavender Row or Flower Farm tile. It does not replace the row; it protects what grows there when the farm weather turns cold.
What it does
- Lavender plots linked to a covered row take one quarter of the normal frost damage, and their Inspect card notes "after cover protection".
- Flower Farm beds on a covered tile: frost-tender crops survive a freeze as long as the low stays above 27°F (they still take a little stress). Without cover, a 32°F low ends a tender crop.
- It also counts toward the Field upgrade "Frost Covers", which only works on rows that have a mapped frost cover.

Tips
- Cover the rows with your youngest plants first: new plants suffer most in a cold snap.
- In 3D, the pruning cart at the field's west corner can also spread the frost cover.
Real-world note
The game teaches that row cover is deployed protection, not a farm-wide shield: put it on before cold, anchor it for wind and vent it in warm sun.
