Never tried this before

I"ve ran water on the garden and that stuff for frost protection, but never fruit trees. Does anyone know if this will work or not?

We used them in the chicken house, when I was a kid, we raised 5000+ chickens every year.

Our plum tree almost always blooms before last frost. Several years I've saved it with the sprinkler, but if it's too cold or too many freezing nights it's too much.
The icicles are quite a sight.
Good luck, Wm

I live in southern Oregon east of Klamath Falls.

I dont know where in oregon you are that it frosted lastnight, but here in hillsboro it did'nt quite make it.

One thing to consider is to not use too small a nozzle in your sprinklers and to not use too high of pressure. The finer the mist, the easier it is to freeze in the air. I use a fairly big nozzle and lower pressure to keep the droplet size big enough not to freeze. The warmth of the water going around in the air will help a bunch.
