🗓 What to sow (and when)
☀️ Warm-season vegetables

(after frost, warmer soils)

Tomato – productive and versatile; stake early.

Cucumber & Marrow – fast growers; give space and compost.

Beans – quick, delicious crops; sow successively.

Sweetcorn – plant in blocks for better pollination.

Peppers & Chillies – need warmth and steady feeding.

❄️ Cool-season vegetables

(cooler nights, winter/spring in many regions)

Lettuce – repeat sow every 2–3 weeks.

Spinach & Swiss Chard – hardy, long-picking plants.

Carrot – direct-sow into fine soil and keep moist.

Beetroot – leaf and root harvests.

Cabbage & Broccoli – start in trays, plant out when sturdy.

Regional tip: Western Cape grows cool-season vegetables beautifully in winter, while Highveld performs best in autumn/spring with frost awareness.
