  1. My oregano seems to survive the couple of morning frosts we have gotten so far in zone 6A. Will the pepper plants still have enough time to make more peppers at this time in the year after you pick what is on there?

  2. I leave my plants in the garden after the frost. If the plant dies, it'll break down and feed the soil.

    The exception to this rule are the nightshades. These can get spotted fungus which can contaminate your soil, so you do want to remove them and throw them away (not in your compost pile).

  3. My parsley stopped growing about a week ago–zone 5b. I cut it all back and put it in it's winter place–I grow it in grow bags though and overwinter it up against the house. It does fine.

  4. I bring my sage and parika pepper in every fall/winter. Got the idea of the pepper from you actually. Southern wisco here and weve gotten about 5 frosts so far.

  5. This needs to be seen by as many people as possible. iallegedly. https://youtu.be/m_MywC8Ts4U. Watch information on bank closures. I hope everybody is prepping – buy extra every time you shop, start a garden indoors with small hydroponics set up – even a tote with holes & yogurt cups suspended in water, seeds, grow lights, fertilizer, a pump & an aquarium water heater & saving seeds will feed you for years

  6. Thank you again for another awesome and informative video. I'm a first time patio gardener in Aurora Colorado and we've been pretty cold overnights so I've been putting blankets on them when it gets under 40° basically because I have no clue what I'm doing and I'm trying to keep keep my babies alive! But you're right, all the cold weather seeds I planted and then transplanted just before the cold hit are doing really good. We'll see what happens as it gets colder. I was thinking about putting them in my garage if I can get it close to the window. Is that a good idea or leave them outside and let them get the sun directly on them? Your seeds are awesome!

  7. Parsley over winters as well. And it will reseed next year and you will always have parsley in that area. Sage does tend to not comeback if you buy the fancier varieties so just watch what varieties you buy.

  8. The first 3 I agree with but peppers cannot survive freezing temps. Yours must be in a small microclimate to have not died but this advice simply won't pan out for most people who get a frost.

  9. Can you do that with garlic? I have a couple of garlics that are sprouting again. I missed them this summer when I pulled the rest up. I wasn't sure what to do with them. I'm covering the tomato plants next to them for now, probably until late December, that's when I got tired of covering and uncovering the tomatoes last year and just let the weather take them.

  10. Being in zone 6a, Central Ohio, I’ll have to try keeping my peppers out as long as possible. Maybe even cut them back and do a heavy mulch to see they’ll survive the winter.

    All the other items you mentioned, I been letting them stay out all winter for at least a decade.

  11. still no hard frost on the NE shore ofLake Michigan… despite snow squalls off the lake for two days… nasturtiums still standing up! I grow a rustic Italian Arugula that self seedsand comes back every year, even though it isn't supposed to in my zone.Now's the time to plant rows of walking onion bulblets… for sweet green onions in May

  12. My second planting of beans died from a light frost. I pulled my first planting about 2 weeks before the frost, now I'm wondering if they would have survived.
