November

What to do this Month – November

Vegetables

1. Parsnips can be left in the ground until needed, or lifted and then buried in a shallow trench for easy access when needed. They taste better when frosted.
2. Celeriac can also be left in the ground for a bit, but do protect them from the cold with a thick mulch of straw, bracken, or other suitable material.
3. Now is a good time to get ahead and prepare new asparagus beds for planting up in the spring.
4. Clean and store bamboo canes in the shed or other dry place to ensure they’re still in good condition for next year.

Fruit

1. Thin out congested spurs on trained apple and pear trees.
2. Prune apples, pears, quinces and medlars.
3. Prune red and white currants and gooseberries.
4. Remove any rotten stored fruit.
