Garden Tip From Iowa State College
Tender vegetables such as tomatoes will not store well if harmed by frost says Larry Grove ISU garden specialist. Harvest eggplants peppers and tomatoes the evening before frost. Sweet potatoes need not be harvested until after frost but injured vines must be cut off to prevent rot from reaching roots. Dig roots as soon as possible after frost.
