A few minutes to spare…
If you’ve got a few minutes to spare today and the chance to have a potter in the garden, there are some simple tasks you might want to think about doing:
- If you’ve got a veggies plot or raised bed then it’s time to plan ahead and sow some late cabbages, cauliflower and broccoli
- Lift any garlic or onions you planted last autumn and dry them in the sun before storing them away
- It’s still fine to succession sow salad leaves, beetroot and radishes
- Pinch out the tips of runner beans once they reach the tops of poles, or structures, you’re growing them on
- Have rest and visit your nearest member garden centre for a well-earned cream tea and cuppa and have a good look around to get some inspiration for autumn planting and anything you’re planning for next year.
