Home gardeners are fortunate to live below the frost line in zone 10 plants to grow and harvest fresh vegetables completely exposed, walled gardens all year round. They still refer to their crops in winter and summer crops, although the coldest nights of the year almost always remain well above zero.

Well, their neighbors to the north, all the way up to zone 5, where winter temperatures often dip to report to-20F, its great success growing fresh vegetablesthroughout the year. As you can imagine the cost of vegetables throughout the year in Minnesota or Maine may be prohibitive on a commercial scale, but also spending well within the reach of the average consumer who wants just enough to grow winter vegetables for personal consumption and family.

A small greenhouse, properly designed strategic position to detect the radiation is the winter sun keep enough heat in the soil to plant to keep temperatures above zero during thelong nights. Coleman propane heater, which late fall camping trips can be dismissed for the view from the top from time to time to keep the plants warm and cozy, when the clouds hide the sun and snow storms kept friendly.

Many companies publish seeds fall / winter catalog for gardeners who want to grow over the summer. These catalogs include Cole crops (broccoli, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, etc.), root vegetables, alliums (onions and garlic), OrientalVegetables, some spinach and lettuce European Greens, which are suitable for gardening in cool weather and cold. The list of winter vegetables is very broad and almost all are of one or more favorites you can look forward to a couple of times a week can see the snow melt.

If you take them however they are frozen and they will do to a pulp before being used. Lettuce is particularly prone to spoil quickly frozen when picked up.

Heating a small greenhouse with a Coleman heater need not be expensive, and not the track heatall the time. A standard size propane tank will last 25 hours to burn continually in the midst of the high heat settings. It will probably only the lowest settings and get several hours of heat from a single tank. Winter plants need a constant ambient temperature of the same 75 degrees to keep the people comfortable. The goal for the heating of the greenhouse is only to avoid long periods of frost. Most of the winter vegetables are very satisfiedin 40-degree temperatures and cabbage, in particular, seems to really enjoy the conditions snowman.

Cold frames, tires and tree row covers are often used in gardens to ward off the outside and to prolong the cold of the season. You can minimize the need for inside a propane stove or other external source of heat in the greenhouse, using these tactics. Things like milk jugs and jars can be used to give additional protection for plants, if you expect a dip in the nightTeens.
