While February and March are popular months for fava beans, January offers a head start in mild regions. Sow them in pots and place in a cold frame or unheated greenhouse for early-year harvesting.
Pro Tip: Protect seeds under cloches or fleece in extremely cold weather.
4. Lettuces, Cabbages, and Cauliflowers:
Sow lettuce, cabbage, and cauliflower seeds indoors in January for early summer harvests. Lettuces, particularly robust, can weather unexpected challenges and provide delightful salads even after setbacks.
Pro Tip: Indoor cultivation allows for an early April harvest, while cauliflowers sown in January can be reaped in June or July.
5. Peas:
Hardy peas can brave January’s cold. Sow them in large pots, and if space is limited, start them in a cold greenhouse before moving them outside.
Pro Tip: Protect pea pots outdoors to deter pests like mice or birds.
6. Spinach:
January is also an excellent time to sow spinach, adding another nutrient-packed green to your garden.
