But inside the hoophouse it is in the 50s.
I have buckets and tubs and jugs of water alongside the tomato plants,
QuickHoops over them, and will put 4 layers of row cover over for the
night. Though still forecast 23 Saturday night and below freezing Sunday
night, also forecast sunny both days so I think tonight is the scary one. Beth Spaugh http://rhomestead.com

[mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Sue Wells Beth, The garlic should be
good. I would cover the cabbages. We usually have both out by now, but haven't
made the time to put them out yet. I am tired of this
cold weather and it is just staying at 32 degrees all day today. and very
windy. Miserable. Sue From:

[mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Beth Spaugh I know napa cabbage is very cold hardy, and I think Early
Jersey Wakefield is too. But, does cabbage “button” from cold
as broccoli does? I am trying to avoid covering the plants (4 leaves
stage), or even wondering if it is worth it to cover them. Garlic is
about 16 – 24” tall. Any thoughts on the garlic? I cut
the row cover that had been on the garlic in two since it had torn, and it is
quite windy to be handling row cover. Forecast here is 23. Beth Spaugh http://rhomestead.com
