So it's finally expected to have a low of 30 tonight and 32 tomorrow with Temps expected to come up to 60/40s all next week and sunny. Have had an amazing yield this season but still have green pods on some that would like to make happen if possible. Anyone have any experience with coverings, sheets, tarps, or anything of the like and some insights? Don't want to risk it if it doesn't help and risk losing lots of peppers, but I can hang them upside down or throw the whole plants in a building after ripping em from the ground. How should I go about this? We're talking quite a few plants btw..

Ive used frost cloth and random pieces of burlap. Really I think anything will do.

Tarp perhaps? I read on Google one of the sites saying not to use plastic stuff like garbage bags and others as it makes the plant more susceptible to frost..? Am I right in thinking with the given weather conditions barely getting an actual freeze (30-32*F) that id do better to leave em in the ground? 60s/40s is the upcoming week after the weekend lows..

Depending on your locale , like for me , its over . Oct. 20 th. and history says winter is coming . Just isn't worth trying to salvage a couple more pods ,     :party:
