Has anyone tried this? If a hard freeze is expected, cover the tomato cage
with a large trash bag and on the ground away from any leaves, have a
candle lit inside of a coffee can. I would suspect that that one candle should
generate enough heat to at least compensate for 5-8 degrees. I suspect
that vent holes would be a necessity. It worked in my hoop house but it
required six candles. For some of you that have like 100 or more plants,
this method could get a little spendy, huh? Try the dollar store for candles.
