How-to grow your own with limited time

Growing your own fruit and veg needn't be as time consuming as you think! We've got lots of time-saving tips and ideas that require minimal effort, so you can produce some tasty food around your hectic schedule.

Why not try these three simple projects…

1. Buy plants our growers have grown for you

Nurturing plants from seed can sometimes be quite time consuming and often needs special equipment. So why not skip this phase and choose from our wide range of fruit and veg plants that simply need to be moved into your garden or pot.

2. Pick something simple

Some fruit and veg require a lot less time and care than others. Carrots, herbs, potatoes, courgettes, broccoli and salad leaves, to name a few, just need quick watering every morning.

See care cards for full instructions.

3. Buy a kit

To make things really quick and easy, we've put together some special kits containing everything you need to grow your own fruit and veg. Try our potato growing kit and windowsill herb pack, which will have you growing, picking and eating your own fruit and veg in no time at all.

When raking up leaves put a large bag (the type used by builders with handles) in the wheelbarrow, you can collect more that way and they don't fall out all the time when wheeling them to the pile.
