Seasonal Gardening with Reencle: Plan Your Planting Around Compost Output

Composting isn’t just about cutting down on waste—it’s a brilliant way to boost your garden’s health. With Reencle delivering a steady stream of nutrient-rich compost, you can align your planting calendar with compost availability. Whether you’re cultivating veg, herbs, or flowers, planning your gardening season around your compost output ensures stronger plants and more sustainable results.

🌱 Why Compost Timing Matters

Compost improves soil structure, enhances water retention, and feeds your plants with natural nutrients. But it works best when it’s fully matured and applied at the right point in the plant’s growth cycle.

Reencle offers a consistent composting output, making it easier to plan and implement seasonal gardening strategies without the guesswork.

📅 What to Plant and When in the UK

Here’s how to synchronise your gardening efforts with your Reencle compost throughout the year:

 

Spring (March – May)

• Best for: Leafy greens, carrots, potatoes, herbs
• Compost Tip: Enrich soil 2–3 weeks before planting. This gives microbes time to activate and prepare the soil.

Summer (June – August)

• Best for: Tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, peppers, sunflowers
• Compost Tip: Apply compost as a mulch to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and keep roots cool during warm spells.

Autumn (September – November)

• Best for: Garlic, onions, spinach, winter lettuces
• Compost Tip: Work compost into beds to prepare them for overwintering crops. It boosts soil strength ahead of colder months.

Winter (December – February)

• Best for: Soil regeneration and prep work
• Compost Tip: Spread compost over dormant garden beds or blend into indoor pots to keep microbes active through winter.

🌿 Top Tips for Compost-Powered Gardening

• Use fresh compost quickly: Apply within a few days to retain peak microbial activity.
• Blend with soil: Mixing compost into existing soil balances nutrients and enhances texture.
• Brew compost tea: A great boost for pots and containers—give plants a liquid feed using compost tea.
