Answer :

I don't know what area you are in but we had frost in NE PA 3 times in 2 weeks.......frost will kill the plants............now should be a good time to take the biggest off using clean pruning shears.  I don't wash them until I am going to use them.  They hold up best in refrigeration.  You can just wipe them off with dry paper towels.
