Jane’s delicious garden

-

TIPS

Good things to sow now include broad beans, peas, Asian greens, lettuce, beetroot, Swiss chard, spinach, coriander and spring onion, as well as planting garlic and brassica seedlings.

For a no-dig garden, create raised beds or edging around the beds, high enough to retain enriched soil inside the beds. Make pathways at least 90cm wide for a wheelbarro­w. The only time you need to dig is to remove an unwanted deep-rooted plant, to harvest roots or when preparing new beds.
