Climate in Ireland is a main problem in that the only thing that is certain is uncertainty. So far this year we have not gone beyond 20C. Not that unusual but it slows down cucumbers and tomatoes a lot to name but two.
Last winter we scored as low as -18C which was most unusual. Some winter crops took this in their stride outside especially Russian red kale and Russian onions, Babington leeks, turnips and black radish. In the poly tunnel were the more sensitive salad greens, misuna, mibuna, green in snow, February orchid, malva's and cresses. It got to -14 in there as well.
We expect more or less the same sort of cold winter this year but then maybe not. We had years that I could potter away in the garden in T-shirt and short pants in January but we then got a killing frost in April.
Something always grows.

ear round for 25 years Paul. Of course
most
of these vegetables are seasonal but we have a fresh green salad every day
of the year.
