Direct-sow vegetable seeds — straight into the ground, no fuss

Some of the easiest and most rewarding vegetables are simply sown where they are to grow — no pots, no transplanting, just seed straight into prepared soil. This collection gathers the best direct-sow crops from our vegetable seed range. New to growing? Our vegetable growing guide covers the basics.

Direct sowing relies on the right timing — the calendar shows when.

Best crops to sow direct

Root crops like carrots and radishes resent being moved, so always go in direct; quick salad leaves and many peas and beans are sown straight out too. Several are among our quickest fast-growing vegetables.

How to sow direct

Prepare a fine, crumbly seedbed, sow thinly along a shallow drill at the right depth, and keep the soil moist until the seedlings appear. Thin them to the right spacing as they grow, and sow little and often for a continuous harvest.

Planning the plot? Here's where to look next.

Popular vegetable categories: Carrot · Radish · Leafy Greens · Peas & Beans · Fast-Growing Veg

At SeedsChoice, every order ships from Meppel, NL with fast, tracked EU delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does direct sowing mean?
Sowing seed straight into the ground where the crop is to grow, rather than starting it in pots.

Which crops are best sown direct?
Root crops like carrots and radishes (which resent transplanting), plus salads, peas and beans.

How do I sow direct?
Prepare a fine seedbed, sow thinly in a shallow drill, and keep the soil moist until the seedlings appear.

Do I need to thin the seedlings?
Yes — thin them to the right spacing so each plant has room.

How do I get a continuous harvest?
Sow little and often through the season.
