Frost warnings are out for tonight, so I have to make sure that everything is covered. The pumpkins and gourds will be no problem, but the 24 tomato plants will be more of a challenge. I have a few more tomato plants and a bunch of pepper plants waiting for some warm weather. I was able to get 3 of the 232.5 Barber "Weeine" watermelon seeds germinated, so I will be giving them a try. I have 2 more long gourds sprouted so we should have 5 plants like we planned. I will be starting field pumpkin seeds tonight. The rye cover crop got mowed down a couple days ago. As soon as it dries out I will be tilling it under. 2 AG plots still need to have a bag of Chickety Doo Doo spread on each one before I till. That should take care of all of the pre-plant fertilization for the year.
