my overwintered beans are just about 6" through. Thinking about another couple of riws |
I needn't had worried about the early flowers on the broad beans my autumn planted ones are really covered in blooms now. Looking forwards to a good crop of my favourite veg. Plenty of insects buzzing around them as well even a tortoiseshell butterfly this morning. Every thing is warming up a treat. I also had an adder catching some rays, I left him alone, lets hope he repays the favour and eats plenty of slugsI'm really jealous of your climate, only 50 miles north, today has been warmer, 13 degC, but no hint of sun or even brightness . Its dry, got the hoe around, but could do with some rain .Only 148mm this year to date, about 33% less than average, with little forecast next 14 days
