    Could people suggest what crops I should plant now?

    I planted some more potatoes (ate the first lot!! Mercifully free from blight).

    I gather you can plant spinach for winter, what else?

    Mizuna, Land Cress, Purple Sprouting Broccoli, Lambs Lettuce.

    Lift a Rhubarb crown, let it get frosted & then put it in the greenhouse & cover it for forcing.

        Kale, purple sprouting (Zigs mentioned it but it deserves another!)
