Winter vegetables

Hi
I have a small veggie patch which is now empty after a successful summer, so I was wondering if there are any winter veg that I can plant now and harvest before or in spring so it's empty again for next year... or do I need to let it 'rest'?

Thanks

 

Ali, see if your local garden centre has any spring cabbage or broccoli plants, available. If so bung `em in.:thumb:

 

brilliant, Thank you:D

 

I've got some onion sets in my patch at the mo and the rest I've sowed a green manure to fertilize the soil for next year. I'm thinking about sowing some cut and come again lettuce in doors maybe on my bedroom windowsill to give it a go lol but not sure yet

 

I've got onions and broad beans outside - and I'm trying rocket as a cut and come again crop.

I've also got a green manure on another plot, and yet another covered in compost being eaten by the earthworms :thumb:

So there's a couple more

My winter greens are already down also broadbeans , leeks and onions. Will put garlic down next week.:thmb:

 

I have onion sets and have some winter spring onion seeds to give a try too

 

what a lot of great suggestions, many thanks. I now have some onions and garic in and i'm going to try to get some leeks and cabbage in too.
thanks again

 

:thmb:Good luck Axie-Ali:thmb:

 

Hi there folks. I COULD be way off the mark here, but isn't it way too late to be planting Leeks ?

 

"isn't it way too late to be planting Leeks"

Yes, but those that are in the ground are ready fore harvesting, or will be soon

 

Well my onions are in the ground, wish me luck as my last attempt at onion sets were all eaten by chickens.

 

I'm growing winter lettuce, broad beans, onions & sugarsnap peas over this winter you could also try garlic & spinach.

 

My onions have little green shoots, Yipee

How are yours coming along Ali?

 

My onions have little green shoots too.

Isn't it exciting
