Tip for the month:
Water restrictions took effect on November 1st. This means it's time to save water in every way possible. If you're using buckets to water your garden, choose to water the veg more then the grass - grow food not lawns! Note that plants with lots of leaves require more water to grow. So do some research and choose to plant veg that need less water.
November's plant list:
Amaranth, Basil, Bush and Climbing beans, Beetroot, Broccoli, Butternut, Cabbage, Carrot, Chard, Cape Gooseberry, Celery, Chives, Chilli, Cucumber, Eggplant, Kale, Kohlrabi, Ginger, Globe Artichoke, Leek, Leaf Mustard, Lettuce, Jerusalem artichokes, Onion, Parsnip, Parsley, Peas, Potato, Pumpkin, Radish, Rhubarb, Sweetcorn, Sweet pepper, Sweet potato, Turnip, Tomato, Watercress, Watermelon, Zucchini
Happy planting!
