September

Collect fallen leave and start making leaf mould for use as a winter mulch.

Cut back yellowed asparagus leaf

Keep your brassicas netted to protect from the hungry birds.

Sow outdoors; Baby spinach, onions, turnips, winter radish.

Plant; spring cabbage.

String up your chillies for drying – don’t forget to wear gloves.

If you have lifted pototoes and are storing them, make sure they are kept in the dark so that they don’t sprout. Your onions, however, need to be in good sunlight otherwise they will sprout!
