I know it's the middle of summer but what do you guys and gals plan to grow
through the winter either under glass or outside?

Hi Aries

Veg.

Just wondering what I can grow through the winter rather than just leaving
the veg plot to get covered in weeds or the greenhouse as a flower pot store
like I did last year.

to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not,

Spinach and potatoes come to mind. The spuds need to be prepared, and
be bought from various places, D T Brown and Dobies, personally I like
Nicola. If you buy from Dobies you will get the spinach thrown in free.
also winter lettuce. Must be many more.

Well I can only say what I would grow - swedes, leeks, sprouts and purple
sprouting broccoli if you either buy the little plants or seed them soon,
spinach

Hi Aries

Thanks for those suggestions.

Hopefully those plants are fairly frost resistant as I live in quite a frost
pocket.

Cheers
