I went to Homebase last night and bought a whole raft of seeds. I did not really know what I was looking for in terms of the best varieties, but I went for ones that I liked the look of, and also some that will enable me to plant several staged crops.
Here are what I bought:
Parsnip – Tender and True
Radish – Sparkler 3
Beetroot – Boltardy
Carrot - Autumn King 2
Carrot – Early Nantes 5
Cos Lettuce – Little Gem
Broccoli Sprouting - (Calabrese) Autumn Spear
Onion (Seeds) White Lisbon – Winter Hardy
Sweet Corn – F’Sundance
Mange Tout – Oregon Sugar Pod
Potatoes (2kg bags)
First Early – Duke of York
Second Early – Maris Peer
Salad – Charlotte
Main Crop – Desiree
Main Crop – King Edward
Onions
Shallots – Golden Gourmet

Garlic – Fokhagyma
I hope to get down to the allotment this weekend and get some more preparation
