What to sow in December

December is the darkest month of the year and everything growing shows it. Without a grow light, microgreens are practically the only sowing worth doing: ten days from seed to harvest is short enough to sidestep the lack of light. Beyond that, this is a month for keeping plants alive rather than pushing them on.

Start indoors

Sow outdoors

Too cold or too dark to sow outdoors — wait for spring.

Jobs this month

  • Sow microgreens for something fresh on the table over the holidays.
  • Keep plants away from radiators; dry air is the main risk now.
  • Draw up a sowing plan for spring while you still remember what worked this year.
