Thanks TOM.
BRW - this year (for winter harvesting) I am growing leeks, parsnips, broccoli, sprouts, beetroot and spring cabbage.
I am also thinking of trying some savoy cabbage, which I have never grown before and any other odds and sods I can squeeze in anywhere. Ooh, and I am thinking of starting some Garlic off in the autumn to give me a head start for next year - I usually plant in spring, but the bulbs are never that big.
Another new one for me this year is red cabbage (pigeons ate last years seedlings lol) I love it raw, cooked and pickled.
I am not an expert - I just love growing my own stuff. Please keep us updated with how you are getting on - we are all praying for better weather this year.
