Can you please recommend a crop to grow this summer for a winter in
containers?


I have grown spinach, lettuce, and broccoli in containers over
winter in containers. Your climate is probably warmer than mine,
so that shouldn't be a problem at all.

I have used 10-litre/2.5-gallon containers. I suggest two
spinach or lettuce plants, or one broccoli plant, per container.

Onions also work in the winter. And you can jam them in, and eat
while small.
