Hello everyone. Hope you are staying warm. I certainly am. We've had a ridiculously hot fall like I've mentioned but the last couple of days here in San Diego. It's been 85 degrees. Are you serious? I just planted my garlic into two days of 85 degrees which couldn't make me more

upset so hopefully the garlic holds on. I hope you're holding on and I know a lot of areas around the country are already getting quite cold.

So that's what we're talking about today.

How do we keep our plants warm in winter?

We're going to rapid fire through 10 different ideas.

And so the first and most obvious one

that's very low maintenance and low effort

is a burlap sack.

You just go ahead and put a burlap sack

over your plant, tie it up up and you are good to go it will produce at

least some degree of protection from the cold is it going to be the best thing on

planet earth definitely not but if it's not Is it going to be the best thing on planet Earth?

Definitely not.

But if it's not too too cold

and you just need to buffer a few degrees,

then that can be a really good idea.

You can also do this with a jute sack. Now if you want to get more extreme or you have more space,

what you can do is you can roll out growing cloth or landscape fabric across your bed or across your rows if

you're doing in-ground planting and that black fabric will go ahead and soak up the sun's rays and it will warm the soil.

So you can actually produce considerable soil temperature increases by doing it that way.

And so landscape fabric,

growers cloth, those are all kind of the same thing
