Growing Vegetables
Planting your vegetables in your garden depends on what vegetables you are looking to plant. If you are looking at planting anything like lettuce or carrots they don't need to be planted quite as deep as vegetables such as sweet corn or broccoli. Other vegetables such as large fava beans need to be planted about 5cm deep in the ground where carrots and lettuce only need to only be around 6mm deep. Broccoli and sweet corn need to be sown about 12.5mm.

A Greener and Cheaper Lifestyle
What is more eco friendly than growing your own vegetables at home which really could not be easier. We have a range of new vegetable planters that range in shape and size, so even if you just have a balcony or patio space which has limited space, there is no need to worry our planters will suit your needs. So why grow your own vegetables at home? Well theres many reasons why, firstly you choose your favourites and they grow freely saving you money. Secondly they are fresh and there is nothing better than the taste of fresh veg. Thirdly you don't have to make that extra trip to the super market.
