We’re
starting to see some Autumn vegetables come in. Like bedding plants, the longer
you give them to grow before the colder months start the better they seem to
cope and I have a few gaps appearing where lettuce and spinach have got past it
now and my carrots are about ready to start to pick. I was pleased with my
leeks last year so I’ll try those again in the little ready-started seedling
packs. Chard and hardier varieties of lettuce are always good doers and I’m
going to leave some space to choose something on impulse when I pop into one of
the centres to buy the other plants.
