Autum sown broad beans.  Have a soft spot for them as they were my first ever crop when the rest of my plot was just mud and weeds!  Also, just as the blackfly attack, they have finished and you chuck them on to the compost bin.

Knowledgeable..... as it helps me sort out most problems and make the best of things.

Weeds - cos they're so easy to grow.

... and sweetcorn, lovely homegrown and cooked straight off the stalk.

Are you putting in some over wintering broad beans?

I thought I'd have a go at those Aquawhatsit ones.....although last year my neighbour had them growing beautifully but my spring sown BBs out performed them. I think the hefty winds didn't do the autumn sown ones any good so mine caught up.

Hi Learner,

That's the trouble with living by the sea isn't it. The winds get a bit strong  :)
I've found that the spring sown ones catch up, so don't bother with autumn sown ones either.

I'm with momofstig on the autumn rasberries.

Also beetroot. Easy to grow and yummy too.
