Really!? I'll have to try that next fall - all mine are already compost
this year :-/


Tomatoes also. I had one I was protecting from frost that lasted almost
to the middle of December here in Missouri. It was too big to move
indoors
intact, but I cut it into pieces and made a whole bunch of new plants out
of it.


That is terrific!!

How much light did they get indoors?


They went into a very bright room with lots of windows on the east and south
sides. After it's warm outdoors again, I'll have large, blossoming plants to
set out.

I will protect you by not refusing to disclose your e-mail address
my childbride when my basement becomes a greenhouse or when I tell
her why we need greenhouse.

This is a great newsgroup.


I agree.
