Just curious what people in the same area (or zone) have had success growing October-March?
I have a greenhouse with a lot of space available but very little space inside the house.
Hoping to find things that can survive some snow/lots of frost.

I also live in the Seattle area and just this year bought what I consider to be the best gardening book I have ever found for our area, The Maritime Northwest Garden Guide[/I], produced by Seattle Tilth. It gives month by month lists of annuals, vegetables, herbs and more which can be planted in our climate, inside, outside and under cloche. I have had it since January, and it has been incredibly accurate; I can't wait to see what each month promises! If you buy no other garden book, buy this one! And according to the book, September is still good for cilantro, arugula, mustard, spinach and lettuce - certain varieties, which are all listed.
Another good source for our unique climate is Territorial Seed Company, located in Oregon and definitely familiar with the coastal northwest.
Good luck!
