When does the bed free up after Dill?

In an average climate (USDA zone 8a), Dill is harvested by around week 23. That leaves roughly 21 weeks until the first frost. Warmer or cooler sites shift both by one to three weeks.

Which crops follow Dill well?

The strongest options are Black radish, Sweet corn, Mizuna. Three things decide it: the remaining season has to cover the growing time, crop rotation rules out a close relative straight afterwards, and the neighbours in the bed should get along.
