What to do in a greenhouse in May

May is the time of year when your greenhouse really comes to life. The combination of longer days, more sunlight and rising temperatures creates ideal growing conditions for a wide range of vegetables, herbs and flowers.

This month, you can successfully grow heat-loving crops such as tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, aubergines and chillies. Basil, parsley and other fresh herbs also thrive in a greenhouse during spring.

May is also perfect for growing young plants and preparing them for summer. Flowers such as sunflowers, marigolds and cosmos can now be sown to add extra colour to the garden.

Don’t forget to ensure adequate ventilation on hot days and to gradually harden off young plants before moving them outdoors.

With the right care, your conservatory in May provides the ideal foundation for a bountiful and healthy harvest during the summer months.
