If the heat has reached your garden and vegetable garden, you should immediately take measures to save your plantings.
In this article we will list 3 methods that can help plants cope with high temperatures.
Proper regular watering
In the first place, of course, is watering. The main thing is that the soil receives moisture either early in the morning or late in the evening.
For very young shoots that have not yet had time to get stronger, it is recommended to use irrigation.
Creating an additional shadow
This point is especially relevant for young plants and seedlings that have just been planted.
How to create shade? For example, you can insert large branches with leaves from deciduous trees nearby or create a small canopy using pegs and covering material. Important: always make sure that air can circulate freely.
Mulching
Mulching your beds will help prevent them from drying out. However, this method is only effective when combined with the other two.
This is the only way to protect your vegetable garden and orchard from extreme heat. You will have to put in some effort, but the result is worth it.
