EP141- Gardening Jobs For September
Show Notes

In this weeks episode John chats about some of the gardening jobs for the month of September. While the sowing and planting is slowing down in the edible garden there are still so much we can do.

 In the edible garden we can still sow some of the hardy leafy greens that will gives us greens through autumn and winter. These include Mizuna, Claytonia, Spinach, Rocket and more. Don't be afraid to sow lots of these because at this time of the year they won't run to seed or both the way they would in the summer. 

Tomatoes pinch out the growing tip this month because all the tomatoes won't ripen if it keeps reaching for the skies so by pinching out the growing tip the plants put the energy into growing and  ripening what's on the plant already. 

Source your autumn sowing onions and garlic now for planting in Oct/Nov. 

In the rest of the garden there are also lots we can be doing.

  •  tidy up beds removing all dying foliage and flowers. 
  • Trim hedges, trees and hedges to get them in shape
  • Set up rainwater harvesting
  • Save seed from flowers and vegetables 

These are just some of the jobs I will be doing this month in the garden. Enjoy whatever you are doing.
