What to plant in FEBRUARY – SOWING AND TRANSPLANTING

This month isn't as cold as previous ones, and days are starting to get a little longer. Since plants have more hours of daylight, they can begin to grow much faster than in other months. However, it's also important to remember that frosts can return at any time, so care must be taken when cultivating. Therefore, in Gardenweb's new article, we will explain what to plant in February. Take note!

What to plant in FEBRUARY – Sowing and transplanting

These are the crops you can plant throughout this month:

Direct sowing

If we are in the northern hemisphere, we can directly sow plants like arugula, radish, leek, peas, and spinach. On the other hand, if our land is in the southern hemisphere, we can start cultivating beets, beans, borage, lettuce, and onions.

Sowing in seedbeds

In the northern hemisphere, we can grow plants like broad beans, green beans, calçots, celery, and lettuce in seedbeds. In the southern hemisphere, we can sow cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, strawberries, and endive in cell trays.

Transplanting

For transplanting, you can start with crops like lettuce, arugula, Swiss chard, and corn salad if you sowed them in previous months.

What to plant in February – Other tasks in the garden

In addition to knowing what crops we can plant throughout this month, it's also advisable to carry out the following tasks in the garden:

Protect your plants from cold and frost

As mentioned, February usually starts to be less cold than previous months. However, frosts can return at any time and ruin your future harvests. Therefore, it's important to protect your plants, either with an accordion greenhouse or, for potted plants, with bubble wrap.

You can also place pots inside your house or create mulch, as we explained in this article. You can also opt for the use of plant protectors, which will create a kind of greenhouse effect that will keep the roots at a stable temperature.

Use seedbeds to sow your crops

If you want to harvest more quickly, you can start sowing crops indoors using seedbeds. In our online store, you can find different seedling trayss with more or fewer cells depending on your agricultural needs. This way, you can start a new sowing in March or April, depending on the transplant.

Sow winter crops

If you live in regions with cold climates, it's advisable to continue choosing cold-resistant crops this month, such as broad beans, peas, lettuces, garlic, and onions.
