Empty beds at the end of July - anything from seed that I can plant now

wait4me · 2013-07-22 15:21:14

Anybody any ideas - I have a few empty plots that could do with something growing. I have lettuce and salad stuff already at different stages. Not great for cabbage in this house - so that would be a waste. Thanks

Your could consider winter veg, e.g.:

It's a completely different experience to spring/summer GYO.
