Growing in Capel St. Mary
We publish a monthly newsletter containing both garden and allotment news and advice as part of our service to the community, along with advertising events that are being organised and other notifications and warnings as deemed necessary.
Plants in the garden are beginning to grow with renewed vigour. Our monthly guide helps you enjoy your gardening while keeping costs to a minimum, and reminds you what’s seasonally available.
Membership is just £5 per year.
First Early, Second Early & Maincrop Seed Potatoes
Onion Sets
Continue winter digging.
Cut down uncultivated areas and spray regrowth with Bio Glyphosate ready for next season.
NSALG seed catalogues and our own seed potato & onion set order forms are now available.
If you're heading away this month, don’t forget to ask a friend to keep your garden going strong. Make sure they water your containers, greenhouse plants, outdoor tomatoes, marrows, courgettes, beans, and cucumbers. Encourage them to pick all sweet peas and beans – they’ll stop producing if left on the plant.
Hoe weekly to stop weed seeds germinating. Cut down and spray uncultivated areas. Scatter slug pellets responsibly. Water plants. Top-dress containers. Feed weekly. If going on holiday arrange for a friend to water plants. Tell them to pick ALL sweet peas, courgettes, french and runner beans as these will stop producing if left on the plant. Stock up with charcoal for those impromptu barbecues.
