broad beans then what?

What can go in the ground after broad beans have finished and still have enough time to produce a harvest?

We always plant leeks in the vacated space.

Hi

I know some people plant their sweetcorn after the broadies. Other than I was thinking of using it for fennel and salads

A quick crop of first early potatoes? Winter squash? Autumn planted onion sets? Green manure crop for over winter? Oriental brassicas? ...

I have some leeks coming on in a module tray- they're like 2 thready blades of grass  right now and about 4"tall.  Should I pot them on into bigger pots? If I don't put them in the ground until the broad beans come out (and I only sowed the beans yesterday!) where can they live until then?

plant them in a small bed, very closely planted. then plant them out after the broadies are harvested.

I have often planted leeks or cabbage after broad beans, just add some more organic matter. You can also grow quick stuff like lettuce.

I put in PSB last year thinking it was rather late to move them, but they have survived the winter better than others.
