Happy February, Harfield!
The weather is toasty and warm. I feel like there should be a disclaimer here – if you aren't using water from your dishes, baths, showers and basins to water your gardens, and are still using hoses, please stop reading and go buy a bucket immediately.

We cannot, as members of a community in a desperate state about water, speak about growing vegetables that require significant amounts of water, unless we're recycling our water.
It's also quite amazing how much of a garden shower, bath and dishes water can actually quench! Pretty sad that it's taken an almost-drought for us to be doing this.
For those who are using water recycling for your plants, here's the February plant list:
Bush and climber beans, Beetroot, Broccoli, Brussel sprouts, Cabbage, Calendula, Carrot, Chard/Spinach, Celery, Chinese cabbage, Chives, Chilli's, Kale, Kohlrabi, Globe artichokes, Leeks, Leaf mustard, Lettuce, Onion, Parsnip, Parsley, Potato, Radish, Rhubarb, Tomato
