At long last we have erected our polytunnel. What we now need to know
is what should we try to grow in it at this time of the year. Is it
worth trying to get anything going this late? We thought we'd try some
garlic. What do you think? Lettuce, winter cabbage?? I'd be pleased
to hear your thoughts.

It's a good time for planting garlic, LP.You can also get treated onion sets
for winter planting.
Late new potatoes [for Christmas] might be worth researching if you're
not too far north, and what about overwintering sweet peas?
Maybe the seedsmen will offer more.No need to send for catalogues, just
go to their websites.
