I'm growing a quick snack cucumber in my counter top grow station so I can have some fresh veggies this winter.

I spent the afternoon harvesting all the rest of my tomatoes and peppers. It’s supposed to get down to 33F Friday morning.

Can you give us a run down on storing and prep for tropical plants or veg plants that will be going in the plastic lined greenhouse.And how to water and ventilation tips❤

How often do you water your veggies and perrenial flowers during the winter, or do you leave the watering of the flowers and veggies to nature?

I'm thinking of doing a window well root cellar that you explained on your channel 7 years ago. Do you still do this to store potatoes? Are there any updates you do since creating this post? Thank you, Rick! I appreciate what I have learned from you since moving to Zone 6 three years ago.

I'm in about the same place... I have a beautiful bed of pole beans still growing, as well as several zucchini with a bunch of healthy fruit but they're only a couple inches... We're gonna have "possible" frost, min temp of 35* for about an hour the next couple nights... but then it'll be back to 75/55. Should I harvest all my immature beans, zukes, cherry tomatoes and peppers, or hope they make it through ok? What temps and for how long is it pretty much guaranteed warm weather vegetables will be lost? I've harvested everything I was ripening, I'm not sure if I should risk the beans and zukes or harvest them prematurely... I'll have a few weeks of great weather after this...
