Brassica Question

I have a bed which at the moment has onions and garlic growing in it. These should be ready by late July. Would this be too late to use the bed for planting broccoli or sprouts in? Just want to make the most of the space.

I'd plant it with spring greens :idea:

If you've planted them already and can keep them in a seed bed until then, then Yes. I did this last year and it worked well.

Just confuses me a bit when it comes to crop rotation. :?

If you manured for the alliums in the autumn, you are spot on for any over-wintering brassica there, lime for them.
