When the winter is coming we have to prepare the beds that we will be using in spring. The steps:

1. Clear the bed
2. Take away ant put into the compost all the dead plants and weeds
3. Modify the pH with lime if the bed is too acid with sulfur or wood chips if it is too alkaline
4. Cover with a net or plastic
5. Hold the cover so it doesn't blow with the wind
