How to grow:
Although we're in the height of summer, plan now for the cooler months.
Seeds for autumn and early winter veges can be sown into punnets ready for planting in late summer.
Broccoli and other brassicas are worth sowing in pots now, as are beetroot (soak seed first) and celery.
Sow carrot directly into the garden in finely cultivated soil, but ensure the seeds are kept moist while germinating.
