I have 6 tomato plants. Two got some leaf damage from the cold weather. As
soon as I noticed, I make makeshift green houses for them with Kirkland
brand plastic wrap. They seemed to pull out of it just fine. Green onion are
doing great. Also coming up are spinach, radishes, asst. lettuce and asst.
herbs. One pot of herbs hasn't come up yet but I didn't label them and it's
too soon to tell what that is. There is one chive coming up in a pot that is
not chives though. Weird. Makes me think it might be the chives that are not
coming up because I see no other chives.
