As the growing season ends, properly preparing your urban planter boxes for winter is crucial for their longevity. First, remove all plant debris and soil to eliminate pests and diseases. Scrub the boxes thoroughly with a brush and a solution of mild soap or vinegar and water. Rinse well and allow them to dry completely to prevent mold and mildew growth. For wooden planters, consider applying a protective sealant. Once clean, store the planters in a dry, sheltered location like a garage, shed, or covered balcony. Avoid leaving them directly on cold, wet ground; elevate them on bricks or pallets for air circulation. If storage space is limited, stack them upside down and cover with a breathable tarp. This simple seasonal routine prevents cracking from freeze-thaw cycles and ensures your planters are in perfect condition for spring planting.
