What Are the Best Seeds to Sow in Spring?

How to Grow Spring Vegetable SeedsMany vegetable seeds are perfectly suited to spring planting, as the warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours encourage healthy growth. Some of the best seeds to sow in spring include sweetcorn, peas, radishes, carrots, courgettes, and parsnips. Then, there are seeds you can sow any time of year like All Year Round Lettuce.

For busy gardeners, we also carry a great range of vegetable plants to plant in spring. You can also get spring-planting onions, shallots, and garlic!

How to Grow Spring Vegetable Seeds

The best way to grow spring-sowing vegetables will depend on the variety, so check the seed packet for specific instructions. In general, for seeds started indoors, first fill seed trays or pots with high-quality compost. Lightly cover the seeds with compost, keep them moist and place them in a warm, sunny spot to help them germinate. 

Once seedlings appear, keep them in a bright area and thin them out to give the strongest sprouts room to grow. When the weather warms up, harden off the seedlings by gradually introducing them to outdoor conditions. 


Some seeds to sow in spring can also be sown directly into outdoor beds or containers. For tender varieties, make sure the risk of frost has passed before sowing.
