Follow spuds with leeks and try salads to follow the broad beans.(If you have left the bean roots in the ground they'll either produce nitrogen to help feed the leafy salads or re-sprout and give you a second, but smaller crop of beans
Ah well ! There is always next year !

spring crop cabbages - i'm using wheelers imperial.

you could still get away with sowing kohl rabi

purple sprouting broccoli

beetroots will be ok for a bit too

winter salads
spinach

kale

turnips

late carrots

plant out leeks about now

you could sow some parsley - for a winter supply.

winter radishes

i shall be making a sowing of onions soon and some spuds  (with protection) for Christmas / new year.

hope that helps  :wink:

Any chinese veg should be sown after June so they are OK. I've put in pak choi, mantanghog radish (big as a swede and keeps in the ground) and chinese cabbage. Also lambs lettuce grows anywhere, and you can get some lettuces suitable for winter, and of course raddicio and chicory if you can stand the taste of them. Spring greens, too, if autumn is kind.
