Things to Sow in the Garden Now:
Now is the ideal time to get a lot of your seeds underway for your spring & summer garden. As the soil is warming up, October is the ideal time to plant Corn, Pumpkins, Courgettes, Cucumbers, Carrots, Beans, Peas, Brassicas, Lettuces, Asian Greens, Purslane, Rocket, or try our perennial Wild Arugala. Also, you can still sow many flowers such as Zinnias, Cornflowers, Marigolds, Cosmos, Calendula, Poppies and the like. Still a bit of time to plant those heat loving crops such as Tomatoes and Peppers, but don't delay as they need a long season. Potatoes and Yams can be planted stright into the garden at the moment, keeping in mind that they are both frost tender plants, especially when young.
Choose the format that you can write in and email it to us at:
sethasseeds@outlook.com
And a reminder that our seeds are also available from Cornucopia Organics in Hastings and Waipawa Wholefoods in Waipawa.
Happy gardening,
Roddy and Setha
