Hi - I'm trying to make better use of my veg beds this year and will soon be harvesting some of my potatoes ............. what can I plant next when there is an empty veg bed?

I shall be sowing purple sprouting broccoli, swiss chard, rocket, spring onions, spinach, coriander. You may get away with turnip and kohlrabi. -
You can plant out leeks, and winter cabbage and kale.Comment

My leeks in their modules will be going into the bed whre my charlottes were. I will be putting my spring cabbage, psp, chard & brussels into the bed that my maris pipers are in at the moment.Comment

I've just put leeks and winter cabbage in the space occupied by some early spuds. Today I sowed some calabrese which will go in after more spuds are lifted.Comment

I have got a few sprouts, calabrese and leeks left over from other plantings, so although I'd not planned what would follow the potatoes I seem to have some ready and waiting ... just hope they're willing and able!Originally posted by Two_Sheds View PostLass

Leeks are ideal to follow potatoes - if you haven't sown any by now - too late - get them from the garden centreComment
