What to do now - June

  • Plant our runner beans in your ready prepared trench. Put up supports (wigwams or parallel avenues of canes) before planting
  • Plant out tomatoes, courgettes and squash
  • By the end of the month the first of the early potatoes will be ready
  • Protect young brassicas against pigeons. Support netting on stakes, make sure that the birds cannot sit on it to peck through. Regularly check netting for holes that can trap a small bird
  • Stop cutting asparagus in late June to allow the crowns to build up strength for next year.
