Winter Gardening: Keep Your Plants Green and Healthy Amidst Bitter Cold
- •Protect delicate plants from bitter cold and frost, especially at night, to prevent damage to roots and leaves.
- •Cover plants at night with dry straw, old sacks, dry leaves, or cloth, removing covers in the morning for light and to prevent moisture buildup.
- •Regular, light irrigation in the afternoon, especially sprinkler irrigation, helps balance soil temperature and protect against frost.
- •Utilize cow dung manure, ash, and organic mulch to naturally warm the soil and protect plant roots from cold.
- •Create light smoke from cow dung cakes on hedges and borders to reduce cold wind and frost effects, or use old mosquito nets for protection and air circulation.
Why It Matters: Simple, indigenous methods like covering, irrigation, and organic mulching can protect gardens from winter cold.
