27 Aug 18 Myles (Canada - Zone 3a Temperate Short Summer climate)
Hello! I currently have an amazing crop of pumpkins but as August draws to a close the threat of frost becomes greater. I am wondering how to handle this if the vines are not dying off yet. If they have to be picked because of frost soon, how do I keep them till Halloween!
