I'm seeing a man about an allotment this evening.

I'm really looking forward to having more space than I've got in our
little
garden to grow food in. But it's a bit late in the season. Obviously I
can
plant some later cropping carrots, some green salad veg that crop in
autumn,
I can probably squeeze in some late beans, but what else can I get into
the
ground in the next month or two?

Cheers,

Colin.


You should be able to get some peas in. How about some winter crops like
brussels, or leeks? I think it's too late for parsnips.
Why not try a rhubabrb plant? It'll take a couple of years to mature, so
the earlier the better. Some rasbperries etc. for next year?
Coriander, if you're into oriental/indian food. Tim.
