A message from Steve Ott…
The growing season is in full swing and we can make the most of those long summer days; take time to sit back and relax and watch the plants grow – after all, gardening can’t be all work and no play! However, it is easy to think that our work is done sowing-wise and to forget to keep it going so we can have some fresh crops to provide autumn and winter pickings. There is a surprising amount that can be sown now as you’ll see when you read Emma Rawlings’ guide to sowing, starting on page 46.
Unfortunately, pests will be ever-present now and many of us will feel obliged to pick up the spray bottle to keep them in check. Before you blitz your crops check out our feature from gardening expert Ben Vanheems (page 68) who explains that there are lots of green ways to protect your precious harvests.

We also have the very best advice on growing gooseberries from Anne Swithinbank and nutritious Kale from Rob Smith, plus all you need to know to grow cherries in small gardens. And if you are one to forget to make those successional sowings why not try perennial veg? They can be as beautiful as they are tasty. See page 52 for 12 of the very best for your plot.
