Transitioning your yard into fall can keep you busy for a few more weekends outside, especially if you enjoy a full and vibrant green yard in the growing season. Going hand-in-hand with preparing your garden for the transition, you\u2019ll want to prepare your lawn for the winter.<\/span><\/p>

Depending on the dramatization of seasonal change your area experiences, this could be less or more of a transition. <\/span>Four main tips<\/span><\/a> that matter when for fall lawn care include mowing, aeration, leaf removal, and fertilization for future growth. <\/span><\/p>

Now it\u2019s time to get to the preparing your garden\u2013 doesn\u2019t mean you have to dispose of all of your plants, bringing your plants inside for the winter is a win-win-win endeavor. Your plants won\u2019t die in the bitter cold, all your hard work during the summer won\u2019t be for naught, and the beautiful greenery surrounding you inside will take the edge off of a dreary winter landscape. <\/span><\/p>

It\u2019s a bit more involved than simply moving the plants from one place to another. Here are some tips on having the \u201ctransplants\u201d thrive in your home.<\/span><\/p>

1. Chase Away the Stowaways<\/b><\/p>

Inspect the plants for mealybugs, aphids, spider mites, scale and the like. These pests \u201cstowaway\u201d on outdoor plants and once inside, they multiply rapidly and infect other plants. Examine both stems and leaves, particularly the underside of leaves. Insects like to hang out there in secret. They also like the intersections of leaves and stems.<\/span><\/p>

To destroy pests and their eggs\u2013hose down the plant, thoroughly but gently. Then apply insecticidal soap or neem oil and let it dry.<\/span><\/p>

2. Be Selective<\/b><\/p>

Don\u2019t take the largest plants inside. A small or medium-sized plant has a much better chance of surviving. <\/span>Bring in only healthy plants. Don\u2019t think that you can \u201crescue\u201d an ailing plant by bringing it indoors, it\u2019s a futile effort.<\/span><\/p>

3. Don\u2019t Shock Your Plant Guests<\/b><\/p>

An abrupt change of environment can put a plant into a state of shock; it may wilt, drop leaves or even die. When the outdoor temperature reaches around 50\u00b0F, begin introducing your plants to the indoor world. For the first few days, bring the container inside in the evening and move it back outside in the morning. Gradually increase the time the plant is indoors until it\u2019s there full time.<\/span><\/p>

4. Light Up Their Lives<\/b><\/p>

As close as you can, give your plants the same light they are used to outside. If you have floor-to-ceiling windows with southern exposure, perfect! In lieu of that, place the plants under plant lights. It helps if you do some serious window washing, inside and out, to maximize the amount of light coming into your home.<\/span><\/p>

No matter what you do, plants that have been used to direct sunlight may lose leaves when they come inside. As soon as they become acclimated, the leaves will grow again.<\/span><\/p>

5. Too Much of a Good Thing<\/b><\/p>

We all know that water is indispensable to maintaining life\u2014for humans, animals, and plants. Too much water drowns plants. The roots of plants need water and oxygen to survive. Soil that is too wet doesn\u2019t get enough oxygen. The plant wilts, leaves turn yellow, leaf tips turn brown, leaves drop off.<\/span><\/p>

Indoor plants do not need as much water as they did when they were outdoors. Only water when the soil surface is dry to the touch. When in doubt, don\u2019t water. Overwatering, much more than neglect, is the major cause of plant death.<\/span><\/p>

6. It\u2019s Not the Heat, it\u2019s the Humidity<\/b><\/p>

Indoor temperatures of 55\u00b0F to 70\u00b0F are fine for most plants. Make sure they are not near drafty doors, windows that are not insulated, or heat sources.<\/span><\/p>

Plants need humidity, so if you have a central humidifier, great. If not, humidity trays are simple to set up. Fill the trays with pebbles. Add water to just below the top of the pebbles. Set the plants on the pebbles. The water evaporates and humidifies the plants. Placing plants closely together also helps keep the humidity high. <\/span>Misting plants is only a short-term \u201cfix.\u201d It doesn\u2019t actually alter humidity levels.<\/span><\/p>

When the danger of frost has passed and night temperatures are more than 45\u00b0F consistently, you can transition your plants back outside. Give them a nice drink of water, and it will soon be like they never left their natural environment!<\/span><\/p>
