It's raining today, so I'm doing my garden work in the greenhouse. It doesn't matter to me, because there's a lot of work to be done in the greenhouse and outdoors.
Today I freed my strawberries from insulation. It was my first experience when strawberries spent the winter in coconut briquets in a greenhouse. Despite the fact that the plants were in greenhouses, I covered them with a layer of straw in the fall. Our weather is unpredictable. Constant temperature fluctuations can be very significant. Today we have a positive temperature, and tomorrow it can be 10-15 degrees Celsius. Coconut briquets are a wonderful thing, but they are unlikely to be able to preserve plants without special insulation.
I think all my plants are all right. But I'm not in a hurry to move them to the garden, because the weather forecasters say that frosts are waiting for us. I did the main thing - I gave them enough light. Everything else has no restrictions. They can move to the open air in a couple of weeks.
I have also already prepared several raspberry bushes for planting in the ground. But I didn't have time to do it because the rain forced me to return to the room. It's not scary. Plants are rooted in flowerpots and can be in this state for a long time. Besides, these are young plants and I don't think they will bear fruit this year.
I also want to show you those plants that arrived yesterday: strawberries, hibiscus and frostbite. Earlier I wrote that I made an order and here they are already here. The only thing I planned was to order vases. Yes, I plan that these new plants will grow in pots in the courtyard in front of my porch. Unfortunately, there is not enough space in the open ground to plant them. However, I checked the growing rules and made sure that flowerpots are an acceptable option for these types of plants.
