Grow Your Own Magazine

Good Afternoon all,

I am very new to the forum and very new to growing vegetables, so forgive e if i ever ask some dum questions. anyway enough of the niceties.

I have been wandering if someone could inform me of the best vegetables to plant for growing over the winter months, Ideally I would like to empty my raised bed and fill it with vege's to grow over winter for spring.

I was thinking of something like leeks caulflower cabbage brocoli do I need specific seeds and when should I plant them?

Any assitance would be greatly welcome.

if it is of any use my raised patch is about 17 feet long by 3 - 3.5 feet wide.

Many Thanks in anticipation.

Welcome Greenfingers007.
Leeks are good and should be in now.Also things like Purple Sprouting and Savoy Cabbage ect.Swede is also a good winter veg.
Most can be sown now if your quick.
