Growing vegetables from seed is rewarding and fun. Sometimes though it just isn’t possible, whether it's due to time constraints or lack of propagation equipment. Planting 4-6 week old vegetable plug plants is a quick and easy way to start a vegetable garden, especially for beginners.
Growing using Quickcrop vegetable seedlings instead of growing vegetables from seed has the following advantages:
Protection
Most vegetables are started off in early Spring when the weather in the garden can be changeable, with a high risk of frost or cold and wet conditions. Pre-grown vegetable seedlings or vegetable plug plants are already strong enough to survive bad weather, as the early stages of growth have been done under cover. All Quickcrop vegetable seedling plants have been hardened off before they are delivered. This means that they are used to being outdoors and are ready to plant in your garden.
The delicate first shoots from a seed are also very vulnerable to attack from slugs or snails, which can easily wipe out entire rows of emerging vegetable crops in a single night. Vegetable seedlings are different as they are large and healthy enough to resist the odd nibble.
Excellent Root Growth
Our vegetable seedlings are started off in modular seedling trays in a specially formulated organic seed compost. Strong root growth is very important at the seedling stage as this is the foundation for healthy growth later on. We use a mix of standard organic seed compost and organic worm cast compost. This should lead to an impressive root system and a strong and healthy baby vegetable plant.
Get more from your garden over the gardening year
Vegetable seedlings grown in pots or modular seedling trays can be planted as soon as a previous crop is harvested, meaning you save 4-6 weeks of growing time. You can also get a head start on the season for the same reason. Plug plants can be put in as soon as the soil is warm enough in the Spring, meaning you are 4-6 weeks ahead of the growing season.
