Having just come back from a weeks holiday in the Lake District, I harvested quite a few good looking veg.
Carrots, courgettes and potatoes.
Carrots have no sign of carrot fly as they were under enviromesh but a bit stumpy. Think this was due to my heavy clay soil.
Courgettes were massive!!! and I still have loads to pick.
Potatoes were very large, but I have lost half of the crop to slugs!!! :( :( This little lot was from three plants.
Would have shown you some of the Greensage peas, but they didn't make it back to the house (only 3 meters away) as my wife and I ate around 10 pods. They have to be the best thing I have grown yet!!! outstanding flavour and loads of pods.
Also picked some tayberries & raspberries. ;)

Tomatoes look much better, but still very far behind compaired to Tims ;)
