Brother Nature Organic Seeds | Locating Your Microclimate

NEW TELEPHONE NUMBER 250 661 2255

Locating your Microclimate Urban areas may be a full Hardiness Zone warmer than rural areas just a few miles away. Urban areas tend to have less extreme low temperatures than the surrounding countryside. Buildings and paved surfaces absorb heat during the day, then radiate it back into the air at night, reducing the chances of frost and moderating low temperatures during winter. Buildings also offer protection from wind in many places.
Creating micro climates in your space will allow for you to grow plants one or 2 zone above your own. Winter protection is the only extra work invovled and is worth the effort in spades.
