But when it is worth taking such a step, you will find out from this article.

The whole point is that snow in the greenhouse is needed to moisten the soil and saturate it with moisture, since, compared to open ground, the soil here is dry.

The conclusion is obvious: it’s worth using a shovel to throw snow into the greenhouse in February or March.

This way, precipitation will be able to fulfill its purpose, and during the past months without snow cover, the ground in the greenhouse will freeze properly, and pests and pathogens will die.
