Prepare outdoor soil by incorporating well-rotted organic matter to improve warmth and drainage. Install physical windbreaks and clear cloches to protect emerging seedlings from cold, drying winds. Monitor for frost events on clear nights when temperatures drop close to the 3.2°C average minimum, keeping thermal fleece handy.
