Water spinach is generally planted in the open air and cannot be moved indoors for maintenance, but it can be covered with a plastic film on the surface of the plant, which can be peeled off when the temperature is high during the day and covered again when the temperature drops at night, which plays a role in keeping warm and moisturizing and can help the plant survive the winter safely. In addition, water spinach should not be fertilized too much every time in winter, mainly nitrogen fertilizer and feces.

Cold tolerance of water spinach

Water spinach is not cold-tolerant, and the suitable temperature for its growth is 25 ~ 30℃. In general, when the temperature drops below 10℃, the growth of plants will stagnate, and if the temperature drops below 0℃, plants may freeze to death.
