Greenhouse tomato frost report.



It has now been several weeks since the "killer frost" descended on
our little garden patch. It was so cold that the tomato plants
inside the greenhouse showed signs of damage: wilting, browning.

Sadly, the Super Beefsteaks did not pull through. They have gone on
to that big marinara pot in the sky.

The Brandywines are still critical, but if we have a few more nice
days they may yet make it.

But the good news is the Rutgers. The cold weather seems to have
invigorated them.

So, those of you who might like to beat the season with a tomato plant
could do well to choose Rutgers. <Tomato frost report ends.>
