How To Keep The Garden Happy

JOBS FOR MAY

RUNNER BEANS CAN BE SOWN NOW. Mix organic matter into your soil and plant in a sheltered spot. Water them well throughout their whole growing period.

KEEP ON TOP OF NEW WEEDS. Hoe regularly, clearing weed seedlings around shrubs and between vegetables on a sunny day.

GROW ‘RAINBOW CHARD’ IN A POT. Fill a container that’s at least 25cm deep with multipurpose compost. Sow seeds 1cm deep with 2.5cm space all around them. Thin out seedlings 5-8cm apart. Plants will be ready to harvest four to six weeks from a May sowing, and during summer, you can pick fresh leaves and stems every two weeks.

MAKE SURE CONTAINERS with your summer bulbs are on raised feet, so excess water can escape and doesn’t cause waterlogging, which may rot the bulbs.
