Plants prepped for a cold snap...
My big oldest living tomato plant sprung back to life after I thought it had been killed in the last freeze. Fired up my spare "MrHeater" to hopefully keep the plants cozy. 30,35,32, .05,B
Burpee has cherry tomatoes called Fourth of July that have a very good taste & works well in containers. They should work fine for you. I have bought live plants & had them shipped to me.
Aeg...I just need to keep them above freezing. It was 31° overnight and running on low, the heater kept the area at 43°. I brought two of the smallest plants inside my house - just in case.

ReplyDeleteWhat is the temperature you try to keep them at?

ReplyDeleteSounds like you turned the greenhouse into Plant Zone 11.
