  Epsom salts is magnesium, not calcium.

  At our ranch just before first frost we pull the tomato plants and hang them upside down with heavy twine in the barn. As winter progresses we stop by the plants and pick the ripened red tomatoes off plants. We have eaten ripe tomatoes in January. The green tomatoes ripen on the upside down plants.

  Great all in one video! The tomatoes I grow usually reach 8 ft to 10 ft before last frost and I&apos;ve been stringing them up for the last 5 years and it works great. Tomato Cages are really only for determinant/bush tomatoes.

  Another brilliant video full of great practical advice. Of all the vids on here about growing produce, yours are the most informative, and interesting. One thing maybe to say when you quote other gardeners saying that mixing Epsom salts into the soil will add calcium - is that they&apos;ve got their minerals a bit mixed up because Epsom is a magnesium salt. It doesn&apos;t contain calcium.

  Very useful information. &nbsp;I&apos;m experimenting with conditions growing in an unheated snow bound greenhouse. &nbsp;Of course, flower based vegetables like tomatoes aren&apos;t recommended (no pollinators and soil is too cold) but my eggplants in there are still putting out flowers so it can&apos;t be too cold in there yet even with snow on the ground. &nbsp;The greenhouse is double walled around to prevent air flow since stagnate air doesn&apos;t freeze things like blowing air (we see that in ice forming on top of water but not below where the same water is still cold, but not exposed to air movement which drops temps even further). &nbsp;But while dead air prevents freezing it also risks disease so I air out the greenhouse midday when it&apos;s warmest, and vent O2/water formation from plant chemistry, but also replenish ambient CO2.<br><br>I&apos;m also experimenting with overwintering tomato plants in there just to see what it takes to keep them alive in dead winter. &nbsp;It&apos;s easy enough to start seedlings in March if it doesn&apos;t work, but I&apos;m determined to figure out the science of growing cold, especially in the face of possible - but hopefully unlikely - nuclear winter.
