The evening before Halloween I chopped back all of my herb plants, my romaine, and my tomato, leaving the flowers and about half of the (originally 6 foot tall) tomato plant with the assumption that it would frost that night, or soon after, and that would be the end of the garden. Unseasonably warm weather and the added bonus of being sheltered on 3 sides by my aparment building have conspired to give me a whole new crop of flowers and fruit, and the tomato's still blooming.
Hah!
