.Noticeable temp drop this weekend here. Few weeks to frost. Get your plants in that need to be in. My winter garden is slowly coming up. Will be a few months before it is bountiful.

Fuzzy wuzzies.
Got my drunken bonfire started, about 55F out.
Perfect fall night for a couple bumps.
Perfect calm fall night here.Way too windy for outside burning here today.
Can't wait. It's been a long "not winter” season.Noticeable temp drop this weekend here. Few weeks to frost. Get your plants in that need to be in. My winter garden is slowly coming up. Will be a few months before it is bountiful.
Then there's those of us who got a really late start on tomatoes...
So we made a frost tunnel....
Well it's just a greenhouse.
I have 5, 5gallon buckets I keep my tomatoes in.
As a retired electrician I had an idea.
4 pieces of ½" conduit, one stick of ¾" conduit, two 8' deck boards and some one hole straps.

That ought to keep the frost off.
The ½ EMT fits tightly inside of the ¾" EMT. The two straps hold the ¾" conduit (cut in 12" pieces) straight.
Kinda surprised myself with the formula working out evenly for the 10' sticks of ½EMT.
I put 12 15⁰ degree bends in the conduit starting at 29¾" in and every 5½" afterwards to make the half circle. 29¾" is at the center of the bend and each one following is done exactly the same way. On the center.
This gives you a 4 foot tall by 3½ feet wide greenhouse. Perfect sized for tomato plants. No waste or trim of the ½" EMT conduit either...and at $7/stick these days you can afford to waste anything. I remember easily when it was $1.90 to $2.50/stick. (wasn't but a couple of years ago)
