I have several link-a-bord raised beds (4 1 x 1m, 6 1 x 1/2m, 2 1.5 x 1/2m in my garden along with a 6 x 12ft greenhouse and a 6 x 4ft plastic greenhouse and several large pots.
I have jut put in some plants I got off ebay - caulis, and two types of cabbage (including a savoy type). I have just ordered some garlic and some onion sets. I have brocolli on order awaiting delivery. I am putting in a large bed of peas (feltham first) and one broad beans (aquadulce). These will take up 3 of the 1m x 1m beds, 4 of the 1m x 1/2m, and one of the 1.5 x 1/2m beds.
This will leave 1 1m x 1m, 1 1.5m 1/2m and 2 1m x 1/2m. All the beds are 15cm or so deep
What else could I grow over the winter as I hate to see the beds empty and this is my first year really growing stuff and after the poor harvest I had over summer (most of my crops got waterlogged - I am buyong cheap gazebos next year to keep them dry) I want to get some produce from the garden. Would carrots grow in pots in the greenhouse over winter? HOw about mini parsnips (lancer) in pots they both did really well over the summer in pots.
I still have growing in the big greenhouse tomatoes (still green) sweet banana peppers, jalepenos and california wonder peppers along with aubergines which have one small fruit on.
