Welcome to our first Friday bonus episode of the season! As you gear up for gardening this year, we're diving into a topic that has been the biggest game-changer for my garden’s productivity: understanding the differences between cool-season and warm-season crops.
We’ll explore:
🌱 Why some crops thrive in cool weather while others prefer
heat
🌡️ The science behind plant temperature preferences and how enzymes
react to different conditions
🌾 How temperature affects seed germination, growth, and fruit
production
❄️ Heat- and cold-adaptive strategies plants use to survive extreme
temperatures
Plus, I’ll share real-life examples from my own garden that have helped me make better planting decisions—and how you can apply them to maximize your harvest.
