Question

I bought some pepper plants and jalapeno plants from costco on mat 13. 4″ pots that were transferred into 8″. Everying was going good then terrible winter like conditions this week with night temps falling to 3degrees celcius. Weather should warm up very soon but from the pics I have is there any issues? Anything I should be doing asap?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. I am unable to see the damage.
A few nights of those temperatures will kill your peppers. If you cannot move them inside, you can try to cover them in burlap at night to protect them.
