Today I picked some Sungold toms - not very sweet, so the chucks had a treat which seemed to be much prized.

The carrots and parsnips have been eaten by Brer Rabbit or possibly Badger - a bit of a disappointment as the carrots were very sweet and we hadn't got to try the parsnips yet.

I have a cauliflower from last year (!) that seems reluctant to stop producing small heads, and my brussel  plant is  offering the smallest, sweetest sprouts.

What else could I grow over winter here (NE Scotland, 250m up in the hills)?

winter salads, sow broad beans for early cropping in the new year, radishes, any winter brassicas.
You could also try tatties for Christmas.

Kale, kale and more kale! Also PSB (late) for cropping in April. Leeks. all of these are for outdoors though...

In p/tunnel you could try winter salads, I find the mice/rats will have most of mine and we do get harsh frosts. My chard usually crops until January.

If we're going to have winters this mild and wet I should try for rice

Sorry for not replying before...

PT cover has been savaged by the gales and has great holes in the ends and the poultry are using it as a day shelter.

Methinks we'll need to replace the cover before the Spring.

I don't grow much outside up here as it's quite windy even in the summer - except when 'm pulling the ragwort in the fields, when it often goes very still and the midges descend!

Have to get more/better organised.

Many thanks for the replies.
