What to sow this month
The hardest part of growing food is timing. Pick your month and we'll show what to start indoors, what to sow or plant outside, and what should be ready to harvest - so you're always doing the right job at the right time. For the fuller picture, including pruning, feeding and seasonal jobs, see garden jobs this month.
⚠️ This is a general temperate-climate calendar - your local last-frost date, microclimate and the season's weather always have the final say. Cold gardens run a few weeks behind, mild ones a few weeks ahead. When in doubt, the seed packet is written for your conditions.
