Everything in full swing. Couple of days rain over last 2 few weeks but mostly quite dry still.
First few tomatoes - but not many following on.
Plenty of french and runner beans and far too many courgettes - so ended up giving a load away.
Dug up first lot of potatoes - a good yield although they all fell apart when cooked (these were the Accord I think).
Raspberries starting to rippen but plans are amazingly small - at most half the height of last years lot. Must be lack of water this year or maybe the plants are just getting worn out.
Cauliflower failed - small weedy looking hearts have now turned to flower heads. Cabbage not too bad though - picked one as was getting attacked by pigeons.
Sweetcorn plants quite big and quite a few cobs per plant, but the cobs themselves look a bit small so lets see if they swell up.
One of the squashes really taking off - not butternut this year, but some sort of greener pumpkin shaped variety. Also got a cucumber (but none coming on to follow that).
