The strategies used in combating plant enemies are of two classes:
There are the ones used to provide a shield for plants and insecticides that are designed to kill insects and funguses.
Shielding is the use of a covered frame that surrounds the plant and is usually made of a wooden box. Many of these are covered in plastic, glass or mosquito netting to protect the plant from insects as well as cold temperatures. The plastic and the glass covers are both help the plant retain heat in cold weather.  The shielding approach is used to give the plants an early start in growth. This method is commonly used when growing melons, cucumbers and other vine vegetables. The cut-worm is a major threat to plants such as tomatoes and cabbage and the devices most commonly used to protect these plants are cardboard, tarpaper collars and tin. These are placed around the plant in a height that is several inches above the plant base and below the soil at least one inch or more.

Cold Weather a Major Enemy of Plants
Many people think that as soon as the weather starts getting cold and they see some of the leaves start failing from the plants, it is time to shut down the garden for the rest of the year.   This assumption is wrong and it is really an important time to maintain the health of your garden to ensure that you will have a nice crop for the next year. Â
The truth is, it takes very little time to properly prepare your garden for these cold temperatures for the upcoming winter. It is when you see the nighttime temperatures dropping lower than forty-five degrees Fahrenheit for more than four days straight, or frost is in the forecast. This usually happens in late October or November but the presence of falling leaves does not mean that it is time to close down the garden for the year.
The things you want to do to prepare your garden at this time are as follows;
·   Start evaluating your gardens design
·   Determine which plants performed well and which ones did not.
·   Fall is a good time to begin making the decision on which plants you want to include in your garden next year.
Make your choices which of your plants you want to keep.
