Buy in vegetable plug plants

Buy in vegetable plug plants

Buy in vegetable plug plants to fill gaps left by seedlings which didn't quite make it, or to stock up on veg you didn't quite get around to sowing earlier in the year. In small gardens, or when you're only growing for one or two people, plug plants are the obvious solution – instead of trying to find space for seed trays, buy ready-to-plant plugs and pop them straight in the garden. And if you only want a few of one particular vegetable – Brussels sprouts, say – it makes sense to buy a strip of five or six from our garden centre instead of spending time and effort raising a whole tray full from seed.

You'll find dozens of different varieties of vegetable plug plants in our garden centre here in Poynings, Sussex. Just pop by and pick up whatever you need, from beetroot to broccoli and leeks to lettuces. Either plant them straight into the garden, or pot them up into 10cm pots to grow on for a few weeks to plant out as sturdy young plants. Look out too for greenhouse plants like cucumbers, tomatoes and sweet peppers arriving in the coming weeks, ready to plant in pots or grow bags under glass for bumper summer crops.
