Vegetable Gardening

Winter

Plant Cauliflower, Broccoli, Kale, and Cabbage seedlings. Plant Peas, Broad Beans, Lettuce, Shallots, Garlic, Onions, and Spring Onions. Divide and plant Rhubarb Crowns.

Watch for snails and slugs. Use snail bait where necessary but select the product that is safe for cats and dogs if you have pets.

Garden beds for the winter vegetables should be well prepared with the addition of plenty of organic matter, such as well rotted compost or mushroom compost, plus the use of Seamungus. Then spreading dolomite lime across the whole bed, after the compost has been covered up.
