Yeah, think ahead to what's in season in 2-3 months time...at this time of year we plant winter veg like cabbages, brocolli, cauli, carrots, beetroot, silverbeet/spinach etc. Now is also when you can plant garlic and potatoes (fantastic crop esp if you plant gourmet varieties) but the potatoes need room, so that'll depend on how big your patch is.
ETA yes I have used carrot tapes but my soil wasn't very good that year & I neglected the patch so can't really comment on their success. I have some beetroot tape in the shed and am going to plant it this year. I'm usually lazy though and just buy seedlings. Costs a bit more but saves time.
