How To Prevent Bolting? Why Do Plants Bolt In The Heat? | Gardening in Canada

This Gardening In Canada video looks at how to prevent plants from bolting. Some plants are more likely to bolt then others. This is even more true when it comes to plants that typically grow and reproduce in warmer climates. When we grow these crops in colder areas we hold back the life cycle of bolting. This means we can stop the inevitable growing process, that causes bitter leaves. The number once thing that needs to be taken into consideration is the soil temperature. Keeping the soil temperature low with shade cloth and watering is the best method to prevent the bolting process.

PLEASE SUBSCRIBE if you are wanting to know more on gardening in Canada & gardening in Colder Climates in general. My methods apply to the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 1 - Zone 6. As a soil scientist I always try to incorporate science into my videos. Soil science can be over complicated so allow me to guide you.

Leave a comment and let me know where your are gardening. And let me know what videos you would like to see in the future!

Ashley is an agronomist who has had a passion for plants since she was a small child. In the long summers as a child, she would garden alongside her grandmother and it was then that she realized her love for greenery. With years of great studying, Ashley had begun her post-secondary education at the University of Saskatchewan.
 At first, her second love, animals, was the career path she chose but while doing her undergrad she realized that her education would take her elsewhere. And with that, four years later she graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a bachelor’s degree in science and a major in Soil Science. 
Some of Ashley’s interests are YouTube, in which she posts informative videos about plants and gardening. The focus of Ashley’s YouTube channel is to bring science to gardening in a way that is informative but also helpful to others learning to garden. She also talks about the importance of having your own garden and the joys of gardening indoors. Ashley continues to study plants in her free time and hopes to expand her YouTube channel as well as her reach to up and coming gardeners.
