With a new month brings a new season – Spring. While we will see a lot more sunny days still be aware of the drop in temperatures at night bringing ground frost.
This month, there’s plenty to sow and grow in your garden and greenhouse. But here are your main garden jobs this April:
- Sow hardy annuals, herbs and wildflower seed outdoors
- Sow new lawns or repair bare patches.
- Mow lawns on dry days
- Keep weeds under control
- Prepare beds for the growing season by adding good quality manure
- Outdoors – sow seeds for carrots, lettuce, leeks, radish, turnip, and spring onion, shallots and garlic.
- Indoors – sow seed for courgettes, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, aubergines and salad leaves.
