succession planting

[yellow strawberry]

is there info on this ,,website or books about making the most of your plot ,,what you can plant after what etc etc

Do you mean succession planting (which is sowing small amounts of the same stuff (e.g. radishes, lettuce) at intervals of two or three weeks so that they don't all mature at once) or do you mean crop rotation?

i mean ,,what can be planted after you have removed crops that where there eg what can be planted when spud are out etc etc ,,sorry i wasnt clear in my post

Well, I'm going to plant leeks and kale where my spuds have been lifted.

There's no real "rule" about what you can plant when, and it's very difficult to stick to any kind of timetable, because of the vagaries of the weather, etc

Those with greenhouses or coldframes can leave things in pots in there until a gap becomes available on the veg plot. I usually stick squashes in the space left by early spuds etc (late June)

My French beans and more peas go in after the broadies are finished (early June)

See that wouldn't work for me cos our earlies are still in the ground and aren't usually ready until late June (at least the last 2 years with the prolonged winter and late frosts). I'm putting garlic and overwintering onions in the potato bed as I plan to have them out by end of September/early October. This post here might give you some ideas/tips
