Sow quick salads in guttering
Keep a regular supply of salad leaves by sowing seeds in lengths of plastic guttering, cut to the length of your veg beds, and filled with good compost. When the seeds germinate, you can grow them on for 2-4 weeks and then simply slide the plants into their growing positions as soon as space becomes available.
