Week seven Feb 11th - Feb 18th
Chit potatoes by placing in boxes half filled with compost, thick end up. Keep in light, airy, frost free conditions. Later spray with liquid feed to promote strong sturdy growth prior to planting out. Feed spring cabbages with quick acting nitrogenous fertiliser (nitrate of soda or, if organic, dried blood). Prepare ground for gross feeding organic vegetables. Leeks, runner beans and peas all appreciate large amounts of organic compost. Sow 'Green Winsor' broad beans now
(weather permitting) and every three weeks until the middle of May.
