Greenhouse job checklist - week 5

23 - 29 January 2012

It's time to...

Raise lettuce and salad crops in pots for early pickings
Water potted fuchsias sparingly to prevent compost drying out completely
Prune grapevines before they come into growth, when their sap starts rising
Bring pots of strawberries under cover to encourage early fruiting
Start sowing seed of summer bedding and crops that need a long growing season to mature, such as pelargonium, petunia, verbena, salvia, lobelia and begonia
