Sow Green Manures

Now is the time to sow green manures on your vegetable plot or allotment.

At this time of year most people will be harvesting the last of their vegetable crops and will be left with large areas of bare soil.

To help stop weeds germinating and to improve the soil for next season, sow green manures. In the Spring you just dig the resulting crop into the soil, leave it for a couple of weeks and begin planting.
