We had our first hard frost of the season last night, it looks like it dropped down to around 29 degrees. The weather service is saying that it will be down to about 26 tomorrow morning.

The chile plants that weren't under a tunnel have been pulled up and aging in the garage for a couple of weeks now, and the tomatoes and tomatillos have been looking pretty sad as well.

This year I got low tunnels over 2 of the chile beds, and it looks like most of them survived last night, but I kinda doubt that I will be as lucky tonight if it makes it down to 26.

I'm not complaining about the frost though, for the last 2 years, the first killing frost was in September.
