Sow your vegetable seeds in spring. Some seeds, like chilli peppers, beefsteak tomatoes, and aubergines, need a long growing season, so it's best to start them in January using a heated propagator. Hardy seeds like peas and broad beans can be sown outdoors in January, but most veggie seeds are best sown in March or April when the weather starts to warm up and light levels increase.
Sow your staple vegetable seeds successively, sowing salad leaves, spring onions, and herbs every few weeks to enjoy regular harvests of these tasty crops over a longer period.
