I am often asked: when do you sow the seeds for this or that which is in our garden? Obviously the sowing times frequently differ from the UK as do the harvesting times. Anyway I have acquired a sowing chart for growing food in Crete.
Here it is:
Sowing Seeds in Crete
You can make this chart larger by going to
where I have uploaded it at a decent size. Alternatively you can right-click on the above chart and download it to your computer, but it is much better to click on the link above to see the chart properly.
It contains just about all the vegetables etc that can be grown here on Crete, so I hope that you can grow your own organic food and be better off for it. Good appetite.

Hi Ray
fantastic! useful stuff you have. We are totally new to grow your own, so can I ask what month does winter start with in the above chart?
Hi
Just wanted to say a huge thanks for making this chart available.
I’m moving to Crete and whilst I really love that so much fresh produce is available in shops and at markets I also love growing some of my own and gathering wild food – this chart will really help whilst I get to grips with the soil and seasons
Thanks again, Anne
Hell Ray, As you know I live on Crete and up until now have never thought of growing my own vegetables, so many thanks for the chart.The soil seems to need some sort of fertilizer as it is not very good soil,well not in the area where I live .I do believe the soil is better on the other end of the island we are EAST. We have plenty of fresh produce in the super markets but the one thing I complain about is that the potatoes have no flavour which ever way they are cooked. So maybe this is one I will try and grow in our garden. Thanks for visiting my blog over the years and the likes left Ray. Hope all is well with you during these trying times.
