Courgettes should improve productivity if placed with pollinator-attracting flowers such as English marigolds. However, I'm not sure geography is quite as important as weather trends in a particular year, For example, early 2020 very warm start compared to this year's damp and cool beginning. Companion planting is an effective and time-honoured way to create plant relationships that benefit each other, protect crops from pests and improve pollination. Our seed calendar also makes a great sustainable gift idea for gardening enthusiasts or complete newbies. Making the beds seems expensive but a friend suggested just sectioning them off with stakes and string initially.

Once the lettuce plants have sprouted and are about 2 inches tall, thin them out, so they are spaced about 6-8 inches apart.There are huge numbers of vegetables that can be sown now but keep track of where and when you plant your seeds. This is also the ideal time to start harvesting root vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and swedes. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.

As well as sowing dates, I give a brief vegetable growing summary for every month, to help you keep on track.
