New member looking for advice

[ian pemberton]

Hello,I have taken on a plot(with a small green house),a part of an old walled garden on a country estate on the North Wales coast,and would like to start growing veg soon as possible.We very rarely get frost or snow in winter here.
What can I sow at this time of year?
Thank you

Hi Ian and welcome to the vine.

Sounds like a nice plot to have. Is it a contact on the plot or have they just let you have part of their garden?

Hi Ian, and welcome to the vine.

For things to sow now, try some salad leaves, beetroot, carrots, spring cabbage, maybe spring onions?
Maybe some christmas potatoes in the GH?

Thanks, I work there and have it rent free.The last person to have it lost interest.The owner just wants someone to have it so the place looks tidy.Its next to a campsite on the estate Llanfendigaid Estate: Luxury Flex-Catering Accommodation In Wales

Looks a wonderful place to live and work. Is the plot ready to sow/plant or does it need some preparation?

Theres a broad bean variety called Luz de Otono which can be sown now for an autumn harvest.
Aquadulce Claudia can be sown in October/for an early summer crop and other varieties sown in spring.

Sprouts take a long time in the bed and are sown March/Aprilish for planting/transplanting in May/June

Hello Ian and Welcome from another Welshie, I garden on the the Wild West Coast of Pembrokeshire approx 3miles inland from the sea.

I'm already jealous of your walled (micro-climate) garden.

I have no idea about broad beans as I don't grow them, I'm not a fan sorry.

I think you are bit late for sprouts as they need time to grow.

However it's the perfect time for late sowings of Cabbage, Romanesco, Cauli. As you seem to have a lovely climate they will enjoy. Also carrots, kale, lettuce, Lambs lettuce (loves the cooler weather)

Just a starter for you x

Hi Ian

Welcome to the madhouse. What a cracking place to have a greenhouse and a walled garden to play with, lucky you

Hello and welcome to the vine Ian have a look at this site all you need to do is to set your location then it gives you sowing/planting times and roughly when to expect your first and last frost.
