Methodological Approach on how to plant a vegetable seed

 



Growing your own vegetables from seed is extremely rewarding. It is a much more cost effective way of feeding your family. But, not only this, there is nothing more rewarding than a fantastic crop of tasty veg that you have grown yourself. It gives you the opportunity to experiment with different varieties to grow. Therefore, you will find something that really suits your taste buds.




Methodological Approach 

The size of the seeds you are sowing determines the exact method you should use to sow the seeds. However, the principal is the same. The compost is a very important part of growing successful veg from seed. We advise using Gro-Sure Seed and Cutting Compost, because this is specifically developed to ensure perfect growing conditions for seed germination. It contains Vermiculite, to add drainage and aeration, as well as enriched with seaweed to stimulate strong seed germination. It is a fine compost which is great for sowing seeds because it maximises contact. Here is how you sow the seeds!



We’ve put together a shopping list of what you’ll need to start growing your own vegetables and fruit from seed. March/April is when people start sowing their seeds. Don’t panic, you don’t need a greenhouse to grow your own, start them off on your windowsill. Ensure you get some direct sunlight on your chosen windowsill.
