If you close the doors and roll down the sides you should have minimal damage if the temperatures only go down to 29. You may lose some of the plants on the perimeter, but the interior plants should be OK.

My tomatoes are in hoop buildings and I would like to try to extend my season past this cold snap. It is going to be 29-32 for the forecasted lows. What is the best method for putting row cover over mature tomato plants. Just drape it over and know you may get some damage from where it touches the leaves. Row cover saved me this spring, I hope it will this fall too.
