Points to consider.
Keep soil temps up, wont grow if you dont.
Protect from frost and freeze.
Pick tomatoes.

Worth, I know where you live,you know that,but when you say protect from frost and freeze,that brings up another question from me.
In many parts of the country as temps get lower in late fall what happens is that the fruits get anthracnose.
Don't you see anthracnose?

I know I see it which is why many of us pick fruits that are colored about half way up and either wrap them in newspaper to ripen them up or put them in a paper bag with some sliced apples,he latter gives off ethylene gas which hastens ripening.
Then shut the bag.
