What can I grow now in my blowaway greenhouse

sow 3 weeks before last frost date in the house (15-20C) and then in the blowaway once germinated, bring in on nights when frost is forecast, plant out after last frost (1st June?)

french climbing bean
courgettes - could sow a bit earlier - 4 weeks before last frost perhaps?

Fine outside, could start them off in the blowaway, but warmth as seedlings is not advisable

brussel sprout

Need warmth. Can start in the house 18-20C, perhaps a bit more to germinate (e.g. airing cupboard), need warmth to grow, so need to keep on windowsill until warm enough outside - mid May probably. Can go out on sunny days when the blowaway is 16C+

peppers,
chillis,
cherry toms - can then be planted out well after last frost - e.g. 1st June (dunno what part of the country you are in, please fill in Location in your user profile)

Probably best sown direct in the ground:

carrot little finger,
peas,
wild rocket,
mizuna
mixed lettuce leaves

Pot in the kitchen?

basil,

Kristen's got you sorted there Neil. My advice? Make sure your blowaway is securely tied down - it's heartbreaking if it blows away as lots of us on here have experienced. I had three go on the same night, luckily they were empty of plants.

it depends how warm your blowaway stays, esp at night (my glass one is min of 6c at the moment). A max/min thermometer is your friend


french climbing bean, peppers, chillis, courgettes, cherry toms are all "tender" which means they need warmth day and night


You'll find it gets very very hot (and your seedlings burnt) if it's in full sun. Try partial shade, or put a tea towel on the roof on very hot days, with the zippy door open
