Title: What are you sowing now?
Post by: silly billy on August 25, 2006, 15:22:59

Just wondering what if anything can be sown now? I have bare patches and it seems a same not to plant anything in them.

Hola Billy,
Just put in the last of the purple sprouting broccoli and curly kale. I'm waiting until late October to plant garlic, some onions and broad beans. Radishes are good for quick crops too but I always forget them and wind up with giant woody horrors... :(

about to sow lots of oriental salads + spinach + pak choi + spring cabbages and later when the greenhouse is cleared and I can actually get in to work  ;D I'll be sowing more salad type things and maybe some brocolli to overwinter and at some point the winter onions and garlic will be planted outside

All of that, and I use Miners lettuce or Claytonia.... have some spare seed if you want. Empty space? get some tares or Ryegrass in as green manure and turn in later...
