How To Protect Your Garden from Frost ❄️
Frost can damage or kill plants. Here’s how to protect your garden:
1. Cover Plants: Use blankets, tarps, or frost cloths to cover plants at night.
2. Mulching: Apply a thick layer of mulch to insulate the soil and roots.
3. Watering: Water plants thoroughly before a frost, as moist soil retains heat better.
4. Bring Potted Plants Indoors: Move vulnerable potted plants inside or to a sheltered location.
5. Windbreaks: Set up barriers to protect plants from cold winds.
Tips:
- Monitor weather forecasts and take action before frost arrives.
- Use cloches or cold frames to protect individual plants.
- Choose frost-resistant plant varieties for your garden.
