I normally don’t plant my tomatoes until the first week of May but I was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
After coming back from a trip, I opened my greenhouse and realized that my tomatoes had become leggy due to the heat.
My two options were to throw them away and plant new seeds, or find a way to plant them deep and hope they could survive.
Anyway, I tried to save the least leggy ones under my DIY frost covering.

What I do late in the season is cover them with a tarp and put hot water in several 1 gallon jugs and put them under the tarp and off the ground. Not sure how much it helped, but nothing froze.
Yep I just went through that.
Ugh the random frosts are the worst 😢 so glad your tomatoes are okay!!!
😮😮😮
The sad part about all this is that it was completely avoidable ðŸ˜
My dad uses cadles and clay flowerpots to worm tomatoes.. it works
