Grow Your Own in May
There’s an old Welsh proverb ‘A warm January; a cold May’ and as far as I remember January this year was quite mild. In any case it’s always wise to be wary of frosts in May. Be prepared to protect any sowings with fleece (or old net curtains or newspaper will do the trick). It’s a busy month for sowing (even busier for me than usual as I broke my ankle at the end of March so I’ll have LOADS of catching up to do!) You can direct sow: sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, beets, radish, swede, turnip, broccoli, peas and beans and indoors sow squash, pumpkin, courgette and sweetcorn (don’t forget to let it sprout on damp kitchen paper before sowing). You can still be planting potatoes in May too. One tip I’ve tried is to lay grass clippings in the bottom of the trench you dig to plant your potatoes in. I did have a particularly good crop that year so I’ll be trying that again. It is important, however, that you don’t use clippings from your lawn if you’ve used weed and feed or weedkiller on it. I’ve also read that removing the flowers from potatoes can increase yield although contributors to internet forums seem to be divided on this! Other jobs include keeping up with the weeding – hoeing for annuals and digging up for perennials such as dandelion and dock. Don’t add the perennials to your compost heap either as it may well not get hot enough to kill them and when you dig the compost back into your soil you’ll be propagating them! You can either drown them in a bucket of water for a few months before adding to your heap or put them in your garden waste bin. Do also remember to thin out your seedlings. With lots of small seeds it’s impossible not to sow them a bit too thickly and although it seems a shame to pull up and compost a seedling once it’s got going it’s the only way to avoid thick clusters of spindly little plants. No one wants to be harvesting hundreds of inch long carrots (I speak from experience here!) There’s plenty to harvest from last year’s sowings too – cauli, spring cabbage, purple sprouting broccoli, kale and asparagus. Cauliflower is a ‘super food’, containing sulforaphane – a compound that has been found to kill cancer stem cells. Incredible Edible Wakefield's Edible Gardening clubs are open to anyone wanting to learn to grow their own food or to share their food growing knowledge with like-minded people. They run most weeks from 10am till 12 noon at Standbridge Lane, Kettlethorpe; Park Lodge Lane, Eastmoor; Horbury and Ossett Community Centre. Call Andy on 07971 098510 or log on at www.incredible-edible-wakefield.co.uk for more info or follow us on Twitter @ IEWakefield.
