Frost may be on the horizon for Denver this weekend, which means it may be time to call it quits with some of your plants.
Frost might hit the Denver metro area this weekend, which means it's time for some plants to come off the vine and into the house.DENVER — Denver could get hit with its first freeze of the season this weekend, which means it's time to consider covering home garden crops.
"It's still awful chilly for things like tomatoes, cucumbers, squashes, peppers," she said."They like the heat, and they like it warm." Just because it's time for summer plants to make their exit, that doesn't mean gardening is out of the picture until next growing season. Borden-Miller said some common garden plants can thrive under cooler temperatures, and they should continue ripening through next week.
"Some of them are more woven, some of them are poly spun lightweight fabrics that you can open up and they come in a lot of different sizes," she said."So you can cover the whole garden with one big sheet or you can buy smaller ones."Borden-Miller said frost blankets need to be elevated above the tops of the plants they're protecting. If they're not, plants could begin to wither from any frost accumulating on the cover.
