The most impatient gardeners already in January begin preparing for the new summer cottage season and begin planting seeds for seedlings to harvest an early crop.
And in January you can take care of both greens that yield a harvest on the windowsill, and more serious crops - peppers and eggplants.
We sow in January for seedlings
Experienced gardeners claim that this is the most suitable time for those who like to harvest earlier than their neighbors.
These crops are planted first, and all because in natural conditions during the summer they may simply not have enough time to bear fruit. The reason lies in the southern origin of vegetables.
Early planting helps in such a situation, and it is not necessary to select seeds of early ripening varieties for sowing.
Best days for planting
In addition to auxiliary tools – lighting and mini-greenhouses – it would be a good idea to check your plans against the recommendations of the lunar calendar.
For this, it is worth devoting time to January 17, 24-25, and from January 28 to 30. Moreover, the end of the month will be more comfortable for sowing.
