What are you going to grow more of next year?

My plans are to double up on celeriac, sweetcorn, chiogga beetroot, parsnip, leek, ordinary beetroot, carrots, chard, spinach, onions and peas. As always I'll grow a lot of runner, French  and broad beans.

I'll give cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and lettuce a miss (if only to pee off the slugs) and the jury's still out on peas and potatoes (blight for the first time in 40 years of growing)

I'll grow the usual amount of cordon tomatoes and cucumbers.

The original 100 sq metre potato patch has been covered with weed-resistant membrane (to stifle at birth any potato volunteers and therefore avoid any more blight) and is now an apple, pear and plum orchard

What are your own plans?

[surbie100]

I'm planning more of beetroot, kohlrabi, swede, beans, potatoes and asparagus peas, as well as my first efforts at parsnips, sweetcorn, celeriac and peas.

And I'd like to try some free-standing espalier apple and pear trees around the border of the plot, with a fan-trained tree against the south wall of my shed.

It seems all very distant at the moment, with the dark days and boggy ground...

[AlaninCarlisle]

It's the planning and dreaming in the cold, damp, dark days of winter that keep us going. I've just lugged my home-made heated propagator into the greenhouse and bought two sacks of silver sand to cover the heating cables with. I'm going to try and grow some monster leeks from those little "leeklets" that grow from the base of established leeks

[Jamrock]

Leeks, calabrese, broad and runner beans are my favorites but I try to grow something new every year, I want to get some Asparagus crowns in early spring, obviously a longer term veg but will be new for me.

Got loads of fruit gone and going into my plot which again is long term. Have got Elephant Garlic in now for the first time

I have been browsing online through oriental veg varieties which in my experience are mostly faster-growing than their domestic counterparts, have grown a few before but will be trying something new come spring

[Annen]

Anything!  I'd be grateful for a healthy leek, or potato or strawberry, or onion, or apple.... I got none of those this year. 
I'm serving notice on whoever is in control of these things, that if I have another year like this one, I'm off!  So there!  (That made me feel a bit better )

[Lottiman]

More Onions, Leeks, Sweetcorn, Swede, and Garlic is already in, will definatly make a better effort with succession sowing on the salad front! this will also be the first year that I can take a small picking from my Asparagus bed, so looking forward to that.

[LilacSandy]

Just put in three rows of Summer raspberries as the Autumn ones are great.  Trying artichoke for the first time.  I will again try cauliflower as I am determined to grow one bigger than a tennis ball.

[shoozie]

At the minute I'm counting the days til it's onion time 

[richy]

More Beans, peas, sprouts and swede.

[Madame Cholet]

more kale and br sprouts and perp spinach. try again with swede no germination. new this year achocha fat baby mulitply up oca. same amout of carrots, leeks and parsnips. Just trying wizzard beans too.

yellow trailing cougettes and fr beans over arches.
Just planting vic plum, green gage, 3 apples, 2 cob nuts , 1 chestnut, loganberry jostaberry and red gooseberry in new extention to orchard.

[Pilko]

More daubenton kale, black kale and onions (just used the last one tonight). Also peas and soft fruit.

[GYO Girl]

Next year I will only grow things that we like to eat and I will not, repeat NOT, succumb to my seedaholic tendencies!

Therefore I will be growing much more of:
Broad beans, runner beans, french beans, broccoli, leeks, lettuce, courgettes, beetroot, tomatoes, peppers, spring onions, chillis, raspberries, strawberries, black, white and red currants, and lots and lots of onions and garlic.  And that's it.  

No more:
Sweetcorn (grew to a foot high then died this year)
Peas (took up too much space for little return this year)
Parsnips (have got a bed full a the moment and no-one except me likes them in our house!)
Potatoes (not got the space, cheap to buy anyway)
Cabbage (free food for the slugs and bunnies)
Cauliflower (ditto)
Carrots (the few that germinated got carrot fly this year and we don't eat that many anyway)

[Steve_LF]

Going to have ANOTHER go at growing cauliflower  .
Try to get a decent return on carrots that aren't eaten by carrot fly.
Put parsnips in looser ground so they grow straight.
Plant lettuces in succession rather than conecurrently (tell myself this every year).
More varieties of chilli 
Giant leeks
Try to grow some swede
Perhaps less pumpkin (always grow more than I need), but will try to grow a big one.
Decent tomatoes

try sowing nigella seed in with them or next to them it works for me.

[Daamoot]

I want to try beetroot, sunflowers and anchocha for first time next season.  I've also trippled the size of my potato area and have a large seperate pea area which I plan to use protection around.  Indoors/greenhouse - less toms, more chillis and try some sweet peppers too.
