The Garden FROZE! How to Protect from FREEZING Temperatures and FROST Vegetable Gardening at Home



Had some Frosts and Freezes in the Garden. Covering the plants isn’t my favorite thing to do but occasionally its necessary. I use buckets, sheets and blankets and tarps to cover the vegetable garden. How to protect plants from cold temperatures for a successful highly productive garden and grow your own food at home. survivalist prepper rain barrels

    I started lettuce in September and I am eating from them now in April.. I live in Western NY

  4. Annie Momma

    You did awesome ☺️ thanks for the tip for reusing zip ties 😂 little did I know..u can reuse em..thanks💯😻

  6. Amanda Beam

    Rock Hill, SC here. We caught that same freeze! All me and my gardening friends managed to cover everything with sheets, red solo cups… anything! Saved all of our gardens!

  10. Weeping Willow

    It got REALLY cold here in the northeast last week, down into the 30s in the DAYTIME! Thursday was my birthday and I wanted to have a cook-out for it… but it was cold enough to snow (I'm surprised it didn't lol). The roller coaster temps are just crazy this year. Maybe next year it will be warm enough.

  11. Janet Dickerson

    Thank you for your precise helpful Gardening knowledge and tips in your video! Your videos are becoming my new favorite ones to watch and learn. Thank you!❣

    Hello from Australia. I love your channel!!! Have been watching for years! Love the way you start the seeds in bags. FYI you can buy cable ties on ebay that have a built in "tab" so you can release them with just a press. Great way to reduce single use plastic.

  15. SWsunsetseeker

    You're getting your exercise in that's for sure, especially moving that large tub of water from your rain barrels. Gardening is exercise for me too, yanking and digging out old shrubs, refreshing the dirt in the raised garden beds, etc

  18. PJ D

    Cute Squeak just adorable for sure! Jealous of your garden, looks fantastic, great job well done!

  20. Laura Martinez

    Glad to see it all survived. I was running around covering my garden those nights as well. April can trick ya.

  21. Tracy’s Home & Garden

    We had frost and 4" of snow for 2 consecutive days last week…had to cover all my seedlings and hydrangea macrophylla with old sheets, etc…but cannot imagine all that garden beds with greens to cover….hopefully they all survived the frost.

  24. Rebecca Orozco

    I had to cover mine the past couple of days to protect them from hail we didn't get any thank goodness but I have a stack of those old milk crates I uses just for that! Work to hard on them to watch them die. I know you do! Glad you didn't loose any Buddy. 💙

    I live in Guilford county… didn’t bother covering my plants at all last week and they still look fab. It pays to live in the city 😎

  30. Marilyn M

    Thanks for tip on the zip ties. You had a lot of pails and tubs to use as covers. I got my tomatoes in early but had to cover them with a tarp. I waited til after the big storm to put up the cages as well.

    Вы большой молодец,интересно придумали.Жаль ваши растения,возможно,они выживут .Может быть посадить заново?Скейтборд-интересное решение,оригинальное и умное .Всего самого доброго.

    Lol! Aren’t cat litter containers the Best!!! Big cat & dog food bags are also very insulated. I tie them onto outside pipes. Agriculture zone 8 b.

  39. Mousie Brown

    Hi to Screech. My cats are finding garter snakes, in December, and playing far too rough with them—but having a great time Thanks for all the advice & ideas. Good growing !

    Don’t know what I did wrong but my plants didn’t survive even though I protected them with plastic and cloth frost😞😞
