when potatoes come out what do you put in?

[Rosyred]

When my earlies have all finished what should I put in after them?

I put in leeks

Same here, also winter spinach. You might also squeeze some small carrots in as well. The tiny carrots may well be a good idea, since they cost a fortune and are not always easily available. Nearly forgot, they are delicious too, just eat raw.

I also put leeks in also spring cabbage for cutting in October time

Again leeks.

But also I some times put in a couple of late sown courgettes to get a few baby courgettes at the end of the season.

I will also put in some carrots such as Early Nantes for a crop ready in the autumn.

And dont forget catch crops such as lettuce, beetroot.

I've got the early potatoes space ear marked for some courgettes and outdoor cucumbers as soon as its vacant...

My courgettes should be just about ready for planting out when the first earlies come out.

Same here. Got nothing in yet apart from my winter onions.

Its a case of Dig, Dig, Dig for victory ;D But all I will be digging just latley is snow :(

I normally plant guess what leeks or winter onions. I like to put a very late crop of french beans in. You could also have a go at radish as that crops rather quick.
