A few people ask me what seeds we should plant now because there are lots of people out there that haven't gardened before.
As you can see, I've gardened before.
You can pick these up from any of your normal hardware shops Mr. Fothergills, Radish, broccoli and bok choy (pak choi), are my recommendations to start with.
I’m going plant bok choy seeds in the garden, and I'll show you how you do it.
It's really, really, really easy.
In the packet, you get a roll of seed tape, two lengths of 2.5 metres.
In a normal household, you would plant 1 metre at a time, which means you got to have five months’ worth of seeds, one meter at a time, once a month for five months.
What we do is scraped back some mulch, throw the ball for the dog in between.
Rough up the top of the soil, it doesn’t need to be very deep, and lay in the seed tape and sprinkle back over the dirt or you could use a little potting mix
That's it, you've planted some bok choy
Bok choy will grow the fastest, it maybe will only take 4 to 6 weeks before you are harvesting your own.
It will depend on how warm the weather stays.
This is what you will end up with after about 4 weeks, bok choy ready to eat!
