Can agave survive outdoors in winter? How to grow agave in winter

1. Can you survive outdoors in winter?

It is slightly cold-tolerant and can tolerate temperatures as low as 5 degrees. Whether or not you can survive outdoors in winter depends on the region you live in. If you are in the southern region, where the climate is warmer and the temperature in winter can be guaranteed to be above 5 degrees, then you can safely place it outdoors, it will not be frostbitten and will survive. However, if it is in the northern region, the temperature is mostly below 0 degrees, which is beyond the range it can withstand. If it is placed outdoors, it will be frostbitten or even frozen to death and will not survive.

2. How to keep it in winter

1. Temperature: If the temperature in your area is below 5 degrees in winter, you must move it indoors and control the temperature above 5 degrees to avoid frostbite and ensure it safely through the winter.

2. Light: It likes light itself, and in the winter when the temperature is low, it should be exposed to the sun more. It should be given light time all day. Sufficient light can not only increase the temperature, but also prompt it to accumulate nutrients, which is also beneficial to its growth next year.

3. Watering: At this time, the low temperature water evaporates slowly, the growth rate of the plant is also slow, and the water requirement is small, so the water supply must be controlled. Don't water until the soil is dry. When the soil is dry, just add water appropriately. When watering, you should also pay attention to the water temperature. It should be close to room temperature to avoid irritating the plants.
