you dont have as much variety now and it depend if you want to sow in the ground or in a propogator.

you can get winter hardy cabages, carrots and lettuce as well as things like kale, leeks etc.

Maybe someone else can confirm this but most veg needed to establised during autumn/winter seasons like potatoes, pumpkins, turnips, swede etc.

It is my first year and i have missed out on a lot of things but in the last month i have planted leeks, sowed carrots (Senior Variety) and am trying lettuce and spinich (also winter Varietys).

Winter caulis can go in, but you'd be pushed to start anything from seed now, you'd really need to source some plants.

Next month I'll be putting in my winter onion sets & garlic.
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?
