Cabbages, broad beans and beetroot
« on: April 25, 2011, 09:02 »
I have started some cabbages, broad beans and beetroot off in the new polytunnel.  They are doing well but I am unsure when to plant them out.

The cabbages have quite few leaves on and long stalks.  I am worried about them going leggy.

The broad beans are about 4 inches tall and look lovely and healthy.

The beetroot are about 2 inches tall and again look nice and healthy.

Any advice on when to plant them out?
I always find that work gets in the way of life.

Excellent - thank you.

I will keep them outside the greenhouse during the day for the next few days and then get them in on Saturday.

Does that sound about right (I am such a gardening novice!)

That sounds right to me, make sure you water them in lots when you plant them in the ground!
