Wintering plants during the cold season:

overwintering method



Overwintering is a method used to protect plants sensitive to low temperatures during the winter months. This technique aims to prepare the plants before the arrival of winter by protecting them from the bad weather of the season such as frost, wind and snow.
By overwintering your plants correctly, you can help ensure they survive the winter months and allow them to continue to grow and flower the following year.


Which plants are victims of the cold:


The plants that are most often overwintered are those that are native to warm or temperate climates, and are not adapted to harsh winters. Houseplants like orchids, tropicals and cacti, as well as outdoor plants like rose bushes, shrubs and fruit trees can all benefit from overwintering.


Protection methods in the winter garden:


There are several methods for overwintering plants, including bringing them inside the house or a greenhouse, covering them with a winter veil or tarp, mulching them with straw or dead leaves. .

When you overwinter a plant, you need to make sure that it is healthy and free from any diseases or pest infestations. You should also ensure that the plant is well watered and that the soil is well drained to avoid any accumulation of water, which could freeze and damage the roots.

What is the benefit of using lighting for your plants during the winter period:

Using lighting for plants during winter periods can provide several benefits. During winter, days are shorter and sunlight is often less intense, which can affect plant growth and health.



The advantage of lighting them is to be able to introduce green plants indoors into slightly dark rooms.

Another use of lamps is to be able to start seedlings indoors during the winter when the days are too short.

Horticulturists use them to be able to produce flowers in winter like roses.

Agronomic research uses them to create artificial cycles independently of the seasons.

Scientific laboratories, horticultural companies and universities also use them for in-vitro reproduction to develop young plants in culture chambers.
