Hi Paul - lots of ideas on the attached link.

http://www.allotment-garden.org/garden_month.php

So far this month I have sowed - spring onions, lettuce, dwarf french beans, beetroot, radish and I am sure that some one else will come along with other ideas.

Also, how about ordering some plug plants from one of the seed companies.

And, up north here, we're about 6 weeks behind weather wise. So I think there's still loads of stuff you can plant.

Look here for ideas on what you could be sowing and 'adjust' the chart to our weather system.

Ignore your old mate.

I know I am a bit further south than you but this week I have planted - swedes, carrots, more peas, radishes and beetroot.

Chuck it in and see what happens.

Good luck.

More carrots going in this week.

Also Chard went in last week!

Musn't let any space on the plot get in the way of a good chance of a fair autumn!

[digalotty]

You're welcome!

Nice seeds too.

My onions are nearly ready for pulling up, once they've gone can I plant something else straight away?  Or does it need to lay bare for a bit?

loosen up the top layer, rake in asome BF&B or Growmore and plant something else

Ditto,

You could get some salad crops going or even some french beans, still plenty of time yet.
I think there is still time for Swede's.

Could turnips go in the same place??
