The chiles that I wanted to keep are in the greenhouse so the only thing that has so
far dodged the freeze bullet is the tomatoes. I have to decide whether I want to
hang them upside down in the garage to finish ripening, or just call it a year. It got
down to 34F last night.

If it's Super Chili, (The seed company's spelling, not mine) it's a hybrid so you may
not get the same pods from your saved seeds next year
