BLOG POST: November Gardening in South Florida
November is the first time we see a significant change in the weather in South Florida. This wonderful month usually brings in the very first cold front and consistently lower night time temperatures. Even though the changes in degrees are slight, they can make a world of difference in a garden. Just 5 degrees cooler throughout the night can help to slow down pest life cycles enough to take some of the pressure off of the gardener to keep a vigilant eye on pest issues.
That said, pest issues are always going to be a problem, whether your garden is organic or not. People often ask us what they could do to prevent pests. If only it was simple enough to be able to answer that question. The truth is that pest management is a science and way more complicated than anyone ever wants to believe. There is no one ticket to success, but there are smart things you can do to keep your plants healthy. Read our November blog post for our organic pest management advice.
