"‘Cooling the cold’ refers to a sudden cold spell that typically occurs in March and April. During this period, fruit trees such as apricots, plums, and cherries are particularly vulnerable to ‘cold spring,’ which can severely damage blossoms and reduce yields. To protect their crops, farmers can implement the following strategies: Spraying lime water is an effective method to delay flowering. Applying 1% lime water 25–30 days before the expected bloom can delay flowering by 3–5 days. However, if a sudden cold snap occurs within 1–2 days, this technique may not be sufficient, so farmers should remain vigilant. Irrigation is another useful approach. Before and after flowering, farmers should monitor weather forecasts closely. Watering the trees before a cold event helps lower soil temperature, slows down plant growth, and delays blooming by 2–3 days, offering some protection against frost. Smoke and cold protection methods are also commonly used. On the night of a cold front, farmers can light small fires around the orchard. The smoke created helps form a protective layer above the trees, reducing heat loss and preventing frost damage. This practice should continue until sunrise. For fruit trees that have already suffered from frost damage, several recovery measures can be taken to minimize losses. One important step is artificial pollination. Farmers should collect pollen from unfrozen flowers and use it to assist with pollination, increasing the chances of successful fruit set. Fertilizer and water management are crucial, especially in low-lying areas where frost damage tends to be more severe. Quick-release nitrogen fertilizers should be applied promptly, along with adequate watering, to support tree recovery and help preserve any remaining healthy blossoms and fruits. Finally, spraying foliar fertilizer after a frost event can boost the tree’s ability to recover. Since leaves may not function properly after freezing, applying nutrients directly to the foliage helps enhance photosynthesis and provides essential nutrients for future growth."

Early preparation is key to minimizing damage. In addition to these methods, pruning damaged branches and monitoring for pests or diseases after frost events can further aid in recovery. By combining these techniques, growers can better protect their orchards and ensure long-term productivity.
