What to plant in June?

Post: # 110591Post AuntFlo »

Hiya

Last week I started to share an allotment with 2 other people, we can only get there at the weekend at the moment so I need ideas for things to plant that are low maintenence.

This was going to be a longer post but my child is hassling me!

Any ideas appreciated!

Ooh - let me consult my spreadsheet...!

Okay - according to my s/s you can sow Beetroot, Broccoli, Carrot, Cauliflower, Florence Fennel, Leaf Salad, Lettuce, Pumpkin, Radish, Rocket, Spring Onion and Turnip in June. Of course this is just the stuff I've grown and I'm only basing this on what it says on the back of the packets.

I'm sure a more experienced gardener will be along in a minute to put me right!

that is really helpful, thank you, I thought it would be too late for lots of those, off to get some seeds tomorrow!

If you're quick you can still get some french beans in too.

Thanks everyone, I got in peas, beans and some big ish tomato plants. Will check them all tomorrow if the rain lets up for a bit!

Have offers from Freecycle for melon plants and herbs so it's looking good!
