Last night was my last night, pulled them already. 44 tonight then high 40's low 50's after this hopefully. Time to toughen up.

Every area is different with temps, weather swings etc so here is what I do. My plants always outgrow my small frames by the first week of May so after that they are on their own. They toughen up fast, and as long as there is no human error (me) I am pollinating in June. We did have heavy rains last week, so I left work at lunch to build a makeshift shelter using PVC and a tarp during the storm.
