Growing crops for the autumn undercover

Where I say undercover I mean the PT, Green house, windowsil or porch !

I have planted outside all the remmnants of the leek plants which we use during the winter instead of "spring onions" or "chives". I have also put a few in pots undercover

also have planted pots of early carrots in the PT ( would work in a covered cloche outside as well) which yield tender crops in midwinter.

A few Kale plants undercover in winter give nice tender leaves as well, which are nicer than the outdoor plants. Same goes for spinach, either the real stuff or perpetual

A mixed herb pot ( sage, chives, thyme, rosemary, parsley) undercover in a cloche outside, inside in a PT or greenhouse, or even in a porch, will keep on cropping during the winter, as will pots of basil on a sunny windowsil

Lettuce will grow , winter varieties are best but most will grow, as will rocket and lamb lettuce etc.

Look for winter cropping varieties OR those designed for "early cropping" to get a harvest in before the winter shorter days come.

Thanks for that, most helpful as I'm just getting the hang of th pt. Hope to have gh up by next wk. Shall try all your suggestions
