Have just started harvesting mucuna..need to get them in rain or shine today, because I don't know if severe cold hurts them. We've gotten down to 38 already and it didn't effect the sweet peppers (which are very cold sensitive...)
but the weather man is not always accurate (could stay at 39/could freeze)
Thr hardest thing with mucuna is being covered head to toe to avoid the poison ivy type rash (easier to have more clothes on though when it's COLD out). Then, they are hard to break out of their pods (wearing gloves). Then, rinsing and steaming and freezing are no problem.
