Bed report: frost warning edition

Monday mise, bed edition. First real frost warning landed Saturday night, so this one is short and a little sad.

Thriving:

• Scallions, all four clumps. Cut them to 3 cm last Monday, already back to 15.
• Perilla in pot 2. Leaves the size of my palm, zero bugs since the cold.
• Gochu peppers, 11 still hanging. The red ones get picked today.

Struggling:

• Shiso. Flowered two weeks ago and every new leaf is the size of a coin. Seed heads are drying in a paper bag for the saved-seed list.
• Cherry tomatoes. 9 green ones left on the vine, bedsheet over them at night.

86'd:

• Basil. Black edges, then black everything. Pulled Sunday.
• The marigold by the fence. Never figured out what it was for. Neither did it.

This week: last pepper pick Wednesday before it drops to -2, pot 2 moves inside by the back door, and the bed gets 5 cm of leaves from the neighbour's maple. Thursday's recipe card is all scallion, because that's what we've got all day.
