If you were fooled by the beautiful warm weather we have been having and gave in to the urge to buy those tomatoes and peppers (like I did) then you might want to give your warm-loving babies a blanket.
The things that should be covered, besides tomatoes and peppers, are cantaloupe, cucumber, okra, squash, corn, eggplant and watermelon. You may want to consider what flowers you have put out also… did you fall for the African daisies?
The easiest thing to do is turn a pot over on top of them and then place a rock or brick on it so that it won’t blow away.
You should bring those pampered house plants back in too… even the huge lemon tree. Exercise is good for you. Lift with your legs – not your back.
Good luck and stay warm!
