I have just dug up the last of my 2nd earlies - Kestrel.  What a crop this year!  I have not grown maincrop due to blight risk... any recommendations of what to put in the ground now?

for over winter you could plant leeks,cabbage(spring) might be worth a go at winter types aswell,or some spring caulis.if you cant get the seedlings/plants of the above you could sow some spring cabbage/greens now in trays and plant em out in a few weeks.
feed the soil not the plants

You could plant some second cropping potatoes now in the ground.

Last year they were really successful for me 8)
