Chilling out

We are going to have a race this year (neighborhood gardeners) to see who can produce the first chip dip salsa. I'll win as I already have my tomatoes in the ground and the frosts are not finished. Tomatoes die in an instant at 32 degrees or less and we have temps of 29, 24, and 26 coming up. So here is how I cheat Mother Nature. Hehehehe

This is a little 12" Early Girl already in the ground

 

 

 Here is the little girl with heat sinking bottles of water

Here she is with a clear growing dome

 And with a five gallon pot over it all.

Finally sealed off with a garbage bag to keep heat from escaping the holes.

Ready for the frost tonight!!!
