totaly new please help

Hi I'm totally new to gardening and have just bought a small green house I want to grow salad items I.e cucumber tomatoes spring onion beetroot strawberries and herbs can I grow them in grow bags and is it too late in the year to start any help would be much aprichated as I'm clueless with garding

 

Your a little late to sow tom and cuc seeds, buy plants of these and also your strawbs and herbs. Spring onions, beetroot, lettuce and radish can still all be sown and as Loofah said can be outside.

For your herbs try the supermarkets pot growing herbs things like Parsley, Basil, coriander and chives can all be grown on at home...Basil might prefer the heat of the greenhouse.

Steve...

 

Its not too late you will get toms and cucumbers later than normal. May is now the time to sow anything.

I have spare Tomato plants, where do u live?

 

thank you for all your help unfortunatly lad im a bit far away in stockton on tees but thatnk for the offer

 

For a first go at tomatoes I think Plum is best.
They are a smaller plant and very fruit profusely. The youngsters just pick and eat straight from the Greenhouse.
The plants are available up here for £1.50 or there abouts.
Stockton is South of here so there should be no problem with getting right into it.
My Cucumber and Peppers were also from Garden Centre plants and are 12"+ with fruit visible.
The Tomatoes are at the 2 truss stage.

 

I disagree. Greenhouse cucumbers will take 10-12 weeks from sowing to fruiting, so that would be getting close to August. Outdoor ones would be 12-14 weeks, so maybe not until September even ...

A decent plant (not some pathetic 2" tall seedling!) from the local garden centre will be fruiting in 4 weeks, maybe less. So mid to late June.

Tomatoes take even longer from seed-to-fruit. Maybe as much as a month longer than Cucumbers ...
