I've had a very good year for first time. So far have had :

Broad Beans (Giant Longpod Enhibition)
Carrots (Nantes and Autumn King)
Calabrese
Sprouts (earlies)
Potatoes (early Annabelle)
Potatoes (main Cara), although I dug all these up yesterday and I only had 10, yes 10 of about 200 that were not riddled with slug holes. Very dissapointed.
Onions (main)
Cucumbers
Runner Beans, lots of em
Spinach
Beetroot

Not ready yet :

Tomatos - still ripening
Chili's - lots of green but I want red

Currently growing in the plot for Winter :

Savoy Caggage
Curly Kale
Turnips
Swedes
Sprouts (all early variety but not picked too many yet)
More Autumn King carrots, sowed 2-3 weeks ago
Beetroot (speedy seeds)
Annabelle pots (Trying for christmas spuds)

Ready to plant out :

Chard - Bright Yellow
Spring Cabbage

My main aim over the winter is to prepare the ground better with manure for those crops that need it. I also have 2 projects. One to properly level and path around the plot and the other to dig a large area which I had no time to cultivate this year. This area will be manured and be my potato plot next season.
