Things to Sow in the Garden Now - July

Posted on

As we have passed the Winter Solstice and the days are growing longer, we can start showing some of our earliest spring vegetables.
 
We will be sowing shortly: 
 
 ❂ Arugula Wild 
 ❂ Cress Land 
 ❂ Rocket 
 ❂ Mizuna 
 ❂ Tat Soi
 
And in a few weeks:
 
 ❂ Tomatoes
 ❂ Eggplants
 ❂ Peppers 
 
These need to get an early start and a warm place to germinate. 18-degree Celsius minimum temperature is necessary to get these babies to shoot.
 
Don’t forget the companion flowers and herbs! You can get underway now or in the next few months:
 
 ❂ Lupin Blue 
 ❂ Poppies 
 
So many options, some perennial and some annual so make sure you choose the ones that suit your garden best. 
 
As for herbs to get underway now:      
 
 ❂ Dalmatian Parsley
 ❂ Sage White 
 ❂ Coriander
 
Are you keen on starting a food forest, try these tree seeds now: 
 
 
We sell the seeds for this amazing nitrogen fixing tree. We have planted these all through our food forest as they are quick growing and produce fast shelter to help your fruit and nuts trees get established. 

We often follow the biodynamic calendar and their recommendation to sow seeds at Moon Opposition Saturn, for these dates, check here.
