What's left today
« on: July 28, 2011, 11:42 »
OK, fellow gardeners, I still have some space in my allotment (which does not have sun all day long (from about 10 to  5 or 6) because there are houses on both sides.
So what can you advice me to plant with a chance of still being able to harvest reasonable crops. I've already started putting in a lot of leaks, winter radish and I suppose I will be putting in some winter spinach. Other suggestions please!

chard ................I know it's like planting more spinach, but it is very hardy, and will regrow in spring for a quick crop before you have to pull it out   :nowink:

Lesley, thanks a lot for the suggestion but we already have two lines of "leaf beet" we call it. In fact (so I learned from someone on this site) even when the plant "bolts" in spring I just cut it down to ground level and it starts growing normally again.
