Are these going to overwinter in the poly SC? Will the likes of marigolds and zinnia cope with the cold? I'm tempted to try myself, but every overwintering experiment ends in disappointment for me.
I've overwintered nigella in the greenhouse for the last two years, they do OK but are a bit susceptible to some kind of fungal disease. Cornflowers and echium blue bedder do really well.
More lettuce: the slugs got the last lot of seedlings while I was on holiday Sad
