Sow and plant

Sow dwarf peas and snow peas. To stop birds scratching up the seeds, protect the trenches with chicken mesh covers.

• Sow bok choy and purple sprouting broccoli for stir-fries.

• Sow microgreens in shallow tubs of potting mix. These nutrient-rich sprouts are ready to snip in 3-4 weeks. Try amaranth, baby beets, kale and peas.

• Transplant punnets of celery, kale, silverbeet and spinach.
