Spring Salads

The first batch of salads are now of pickable size – and some of the leaves actually make it as far as the house -although at the moment most are picked a leaf at a time to relish as I work in the garden. I also have a row of the ‘Wasabi’ rocket from Thompson & Morgan growing between the broad beans and it really does have a powerful wasabi-type kick to it. From now on I will sow my salads in a shady spot outdoors (in pots) because I find germination slows right down if they are in the greenhouse which gets very warm during the day.  The same goes for spinach.
