gardenstead | When, why & how to bring plants inside for winter @gardenstead | Uploaded November 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Aaron Deacon of BIOS Nutrients is back on the pod to talk about when, why and how to bring plants inside for winter in this episode of Digging in with gardenstead.
When to bring plants inside: watch the overnight temperatures. When it gets below 7˚C (45˚F) regularly overnight, you'll want to bring those plants in!
Why should we bring plants inside? Well, anyone who loves plants knows — there are all kinds of plants that can't handle low winter temperatures and definitely can't handle freezing.
How should we bring plants inside? Aaron tackles our biggest concern: BUGS. Get your insecticidal soap or your diatomaceous earth ready, and tune in to the episode for tips about getting rid of critters before your plants come in from the outdoors.
Aaron and Katie also talk about what to do if you find bugs on plants once they come in, where to put your plants (south-facing windows are best), grow lights and watering.
Do you have a question about bringing plants inside for winter that we missed? Let us know in the comments! One of our experts will pop in with an answer.
Make sure to watch all the way through for Aaron’s tips on choosing a good grow light for your indoor plants.

Gardenstead is an online gardening community and plant lovers channel of gardeners who love to get their hands dirty, both indoors and outdoors. Our gardeners run the gamut. They are vegetable gardeners, houseplant nurturers, small space gardening engineers, herbalists, flower enthusiasts and succulent aficionados.
Our goal has always been to connect gardeners in an inclusive gardening community, foster and share knowledge, and make gardening resources available to everyone.
As we grow, we seek to expand our conversations about gardening and to
cultivate a mindful embrace of nature and the healing and grounding properties
to be found in it.
Plants cultivate connections between people — from urban settings of balcony gardens
and small spaces to rural backyards with larger and more expansive gardens. We hope
you’ll join us as we continue to nurture these connections and create new ones.
