You Must Sow These Seeds in September
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
It may be late in the season but there's still plenty to get started if you want to get the most from your garden. Sowings made now will set you up for even more crops later on this autumn, through winter, and on into spring.
So, join Ben as he sows a tempting selection of Asian greens, winter-hardy salads and some last-minute roots.

Ben, you bring so much joy to gardening. Your energy level is incredible and very contagious!!! Learned quite a bit form your videos. Many good comments and shared growing information; they have been quite helpful. I live in Zone 9 with mild climate. Your suggestions are so valuable to us, gardeners, Thank you so much for all your valuable videos, suggestions and comments. Enjoy watching your Healthy Garden!

Hi Ben, I know you’ve done many strawberry videos but could you do one about “what to do before winter” , “what to do with the offshoots over winter” zone 6b , thanks for inspiring me to garden ❤ I was severely depressed before watching your videos . They have sparked an interest for me to gardening. Over the summer I built a greenhouse, built five huge raised beds, started a chicken coop and now working on a walk way. Thanks Ben 😊

I grow mizuna in Japan and it is very hardy. I have had it snowed on before with no problem. If you cut it at the base for the leaves it grows back quickly for more harvesting later.
I started some January King cabbages last year and set them out in a raised bed at the appropriate time. They were coming along nicely, and I expected to harvest them in late winter or early spring. But here in Tennessee (USA) we were hit with extraordinarily COLD weather right at Christmas -- down to zero fahrenheit, and wind chill about 10 degrees colder. My wonderful little cabbages did not survive, but after watching your video, I believe I'm going to try them again this year. Thank you for all the encouragement about late gardens!

I've been gathering up old windows around the farm. I plan to put Together a few cold frames to keep some greens going as long as possible. Love this fresh greens and all the store bought ones don't taste as good nor last as long. But future plans are to build me a small green house with these old windows. My garden has been awesome this year. A lot is due to your awesome advice I have followed. And my wonderful home grown fertilizer from my horses and donkey lol. My cows have been on vacation all summer visiting t My friends bull so , the Lord willing, in Jan ill have calves and in April...a MULE, hopefully a gaited mule. This old lady's little farm is growing. Y'all have a blessed Sunday

Sounds like an awesome little farm!
Let several of these winter greens go to seed in the spring and allow them to spread around your garden. They will become prolific weeds with the advantages that they exclude other weeds and can simply be pulled and eaten. Two red mustard plants (over two meters high at harvest) gave me enough seed for kitchen for most of a year and I cook with them twice a week.

Hello! I just started my gardening journey a week ago, and I am obsessed! The extremely cheap pots and seeds due to what time it is in the year is a brilliant bonus and headstart for me. I'll be sure to sow some of these next month!

I went on a scavenge for pallets to build a compost zone today and when I found some (B&M store Suffolk, England) they had loads of ruptured bags of compost they were not going to sell… they let me have them (50L bags) for £1 each … only had a tiny hole In each bag and there was minimal dirt left in the car boot. Win win!

Miner's lettuce got it's name during the California Gold Rush. The part of California where the mining happened was so heavily forested that there wasn't enough sunlight on the forest floor to grow other types of lettuces.

I too love French Breakfast radish. 3 days ago I re-seeded a planter with radish, spinach and beetroot for a Fall ( Autumn) crop. Will try some of these greens too in a planter I plan on cleaning out next week. I also have one planter annually in use with cover crops because they dont die here in winter ( 9b Sacramento,Ca) ; I am able to wait until December to turn them in and by March plant in that planter, the planters rotate, so one I currently have cucumber and butternut squash in will become my next cover crop planter for 2024. I use a 7 planter rotation for cover crops.Thanks Ben, great videos.

Do try some of the greens - you won't regret it!
I just want to say thank you (and not for the first time). Seeds ordered, this has been year 1 and you've seen me right. I have chillies, long red pepper, aubergine, pumpkins, tomatoes, and so much more in my little space and they're all doing so well! My favourite youtube channel by far... apart from the one I work for if the boss sees this haha.

This is my first time growing French breakfast. They’re already sprouting. My husband doesn’t care for radishes but I love them.
I live in zone 8 USA. We're in the dog days of summer here (high 90s, 100s). But still planning my fall garden. Swiss card, kale, beets, carrots, spinach, kohlrabi, bokcoy, and collards.
It was kind of you to mention the US (Winter) equivalent to your zone. For those of us with hot summers and sometimes brutally cold winters the mild UK climate can be perplexing.
I normally get tired around this time of the year, but I will keep going, thank you!

I only have a smallish balcony space, but do have a racked planter (metal framed with fabric planting troughs), and I just realised I could make a clear plastic hood to fit over it, so could try out some of these winter plantings. The only difficulty is I fear I don't get quite enough sunlight for successful vegetable growing (it's east/south-east facing, and there's an overhang above it - meaning I also have to water, no matter how rainy it is). I do have land cress and radish seed, though, so may as well give it a go! Thanks for the inspiration.
