Tips for growing vegetables in January and February

1. Insulation and cold prevention: Vegetables planted in January and February are easily attacked by late spring cold, which causes a sharp drop in temperature. In addition, the plants have a relatively low resistance to cold, resulting in frost and chilling damage to vegetables. It is necessary to strengthen insulation and warming work, and seal the greenhouse before the late spring cold arrives.

2. Ventilation and light transmission: After the temperature rises, the humidity in the greenhouse will increase significantly, which will affect the growth of vegetables and increase the occurrence of diseases. At this time, attention should be paid to ventilation and light transmission to reduce the humidity in the greenhouse. At the same time, harmful gases in the greenhouse, such as ammonia and sulfur dioxide, can be discharged in time.

3. Disease prevention and control: Excessive humidity in the vegetable shed can easily cause gray mold and other diseases. Pay attention to ventilation. After the spring, prevent sudden wilt, damping-off, root rot, downy mildew, anthracnose, early blight, eggplant brown streak disease, sclerotinia, celery spot blight, etc., and also prevent and control aphids.
