Today should be warm and mid 80's and then we change drastically! - like 5 or 6 days of rain, nights in the mid 40's, highs during the day of low 70's. I don't think we'll return to 80 degree or higher temps this year, which is a bit unusual as there are times we are still in the 80's in late October.
my question is my tomatos and peppers. I still have LOTS of green tomatos out there. Should I just pick them and let them ripen in a bag with this forecasted rain and cool temps coming? or can they ride a few days of this out and then continue to ripen when we go back to some sun, even though it might only be in the 70's? or will our cool night time temps stunt any further vine-ripening?
