Wow! Sounds like I missed a fantastic Open Fields this year, one for the
record books! Well I had my own open fields, harvesting peppers and making
pepper mash, trying to beat the frost everyone said was coming. But it
missed us. My electronic thermometer with remote sensor placed at 6" above
ground level only went down to 33. The field where the Red Savina test plot
is planted is only 3000' south of Lake Erie, and is one of the last places
to get a killing frost in this area. Plants still have lots of pods turning
color. Sounds like everyone had a great time. I can't wait for everyone to
start posting pics!
