The written bits
Mr Nodiggity is better at your specific question than any page can be. These are for the general ones, the sort you want to read through rather than ask: sowing dates, watering, frost, and what to do with a bed that has finished.
- What to sow, month by monthWhat to sow in a UK vegetable garden in every month of the year, with the honest cut-off dates and what to do when you have missed one.Read it
- How often to water vegetablesHow much water vegetables actually need, why a daily sprinkle is worse than a weekly soak, and how to tell whether the rain did the job for you.Read it
- The first frost, and what to coverWhen to expect the first autumn frost in the UK, which vegetables are killed by it, which ones are improved by it, and what is actually worth covering.Read it
- Empty beds over winterWhether to cover, mulch or sow a green manure on beds that have finished cropping, and why leaving bare soil over winter costs you next spring.Read it
Or just ask
If your question is about your patch rather than gardens in general, the chatbot knows your location and this week's weather, and will give you a straighter answer than a guide can.
