July Gardener’s Diary
The vegetable plot should be really starting to stir in July. Now is the time to be nurturing the results of all your hard work from the last few months. Watering, weeding, staking and supporting should be on the agenda. Climbing beans will be growing skyward along their frames and will need some regular, gentle intervention to keep them there.
Continue to fill temporary gaps that appear between crop cycles with quick growing varieties such as radishes or lettuce, so theres no wasted space in the garden.
Throughout the month you can dish up, on the table, some of veggies that have been the labour of love for the past six months and taste the difference.
