EP215- What To Sow In March & Other Gardening Jobs!!


Listen Later

What vegetable seeds to sow in the month of March? That's the topic on this weeks episode.  The days are getting longer and the seed sowing list for March is also increasing. The big point to note is March is often described as "March of many weathers" and because of that we need to take care of our tender seedlings and young plants in the coming weeks.  Here is a list of some of what I will be sowing during the month ahead.

Seed I am sowing Indoor in Module trays for Planting out In April.  

Spinach, Lettuce, Scallions/Spring Onion, Early cabbage, Early Cauliflower, Calabrese, Onion, Broad Bean, Celery, Leeks  

Seed I am sowing Indoor in Module trays for Planting in tunnel.  

Parsley, Dill, Coriander & Celery 

Seed I am sowing Indoor on heat for Planting in tunnel. 

Tomato, Chili Pepper, Bell Pepper

I am direct sowing in my polytunnel. 

Beetroot, Radish, Carrot & Turnip 

I will also plant early potatoes (Sharpes Express) into my polytunnel late in the month and I am currently heating up the ground where they will be planted with black plastic, so the temperature is nice and warm at planting time.  

Brace yourselves, green thumbs and gardening enthusiasts; this episode is your ticket to mastering the mercurial March garden scene! From the frosty threats to your tender seedlings to the strategic sowing of spring onions and cauliflower, I'm dishing out all the must-know advice to prepare your vegetable patch for a bountiful harvest. You'll find out why sowing in small, manageable batches isn't just a recommendation—it's a game changer. And if you've ever wondered about the sorcery of multi-sowing, prepare to have that mystery unraveled. Plus, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own sowing habits, sharing the tweaks and refinements implemented to make this year's garden my most efficient yet.

But it's not all about veggies – herbs and flowers are stepping into the spotlight too. I'll guide you through the delicate dance of sowing peas and disclose why your celery seeds might just be craving that extra bit of warmth. For those eager to cultivate a taste of the exotic, I explain how to give your peppers, tomatoes, and aubergines the heated embrace they need to thrive. So grab your trowels, set up those propagators, and join me as we sow the seeds of success for the fruitful months to come.
