I took some photos of what's growing in the polytunnel at the moment:
Runner beans. I sowed far too many. So I will sell some of them at a carboot sale for ten bob each or 50 Cents if you have the Euro like most European countries have.
Above cabbages grown in mini digger tracks raised beds. We ate some last week and it was very good.
Onions 🌰. Is there a vegetable family you can not give enough praise for? Alliums are brilliant and be it my Japanese winter onions onions, leeks, or spring or summer onions. I can not praise them enough.
I will write and post a blog about what's going on outside in the veg plot next time.👍
You are putting me to shame !!...I know there are reasons.....but farcebook showed me garden photos from many years.....and all I have are garlic, last year's leeks, some rhubarb and leeks and beetroot sown....
ReplyDeleteThere's still plenty of time to get sowing and growing GZ. The swedes seedlings came throug the other day. Needs and tatties.
ReplyDeleteNeaps even. Stupid autocorrect.
ReplyDeleteSo far we only have courgettes and strawberries. I must have a word with the Head Gardener.
ReplyDeleteCourgettes and 🍓 strawberries. Very nice JayCee. I give the rabbits my chemical free flat lettuces every morning.
ReplyDeleteK has planted tomatoes, aubergines and peppers. I have given up on vegetables. I'm growing sunflowers, Basil, mint and oregano
ReplyDeleteHi Linda. I have no idea when you plant vegetables where you live. I believe they plant potatoes in August in Portugal. I look forward to seeing photos of your and K's vegetables on your blog.
DeleteI am a big fan of leeks but for successful growing my top vegetables are runner beans and courgettes.
ReplyDeletePotato and leek soup is a favourite in winter YP. I like the runner beans flowers. Very attractive. Swedes are another winter harvested plant we like.
ReplyDeleteRunner beans are my favourite, when planning our new beds, it was the first thing I sorted. Love tomatoes, cucumbers and strawberries and peas if they produce a harvest.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first year growing runner beans Marlene. I like their flowers. Tomato plants are very slow growing this year. They need lots of sun.
DeleteI have a type of kale that is producing small heads, very tasty, a very few ripened strawberries, asparagus , both in the tunnel and outside (not producing very wll this year) and many of the tomatoes have flowers. Potatoes nearly flowering.
