I trim mine really short before I bring it in. Cooler weather and shorter days are often a signal to annuals to make seeds for the next year’s survival.
When I grow plants indoors, I always turn on a grow light after dark to simulate the longer days of summer. It’s only important for some plants, but I just do it for all and that way I don’t have to remember which is which.
I really should have cleared a space for my lemon tree and brought it in today. It’s down to 49 degrees @ dawn and cooler days, not good for the tomatoes either.
Yeah we hit 49 degrees the other night and I still have 15-16 tomatoes out there. Some good-sized, some not yet matured.
I’m hoping we’ll get that longer spell where we don’t see freezing until December. Crossing my fingers.
So I hope this weather trend reverses. I can’t bring in all those tomato plants.
