Here too....Freeze warnings in 6B KS/MO for Monday and Tuesday night which is just about the usual time per USDA. It will go back to regular fall 50-70 degree after that.

Gave the lettuce and cabbage and leeks a deep watering and covered them up with the low tunnels.

Except for a few small tomatoes on the 3 Burpees long store tomato plants, picked all the remaining green tomatoes. I will wrap the Long Stores with gardening fabric and see if it warms up enough to continue growing them.

Emptied the hoses and the drip irrigation. Will secure them for winter tomorrow. Will water with a hose from here on.
