What are you harvesting?

[plotstoeat]

This week I have dug up the last of my parsnips and some leeks from the lotty, rocket and radishes (poor) from the greenhouse (unheated) and kale, chard and herbs from the veg plot. A decent haul but it could be so much more. What's everyone else harvesting?

I have about one more picking of brussel sprouts, loads of white sprouting brocolli, couple of cabbages, there looks like 2 caulis coming, red kale, chard bright lights, have about 8 leeks left and a few swedes and turnips.  Not bad for this time of year.

The only winter veg I grow are celeriac and leeks - of which there are still two of the former and 7 of the latter waiting to be needed in the kitchen! I'll have to use them up soon though as it won't be long before I need the space.

leeks, red cabbage, and some calabrese that survived the winter in a pot by the garage. Do alfalfa sprouts count?

[Hi_Hoe]

Leeks, PSB, calabrese/ Kale, Brussels, Parsnips. Also got some white lisbon onions were taking every now and then.

We also use the leaves of our calabrese/ psb and sprout plants - strong tasting but invaluable in the depths of winter!! ;)

[artichoke]

Plenty of leeks still, bucket of parsnips now indoors because I need the ground, and a few still in the ground elsewhere. Purple broccoli and white broccoli starting to sprout. Spinach. Sorrel.

Fragments of kale, and I mean to grow much more of everything cabbagey this year.

Lots of parsley and 3 cornered garlic and wild garlic.

Microgreens - a gutter of mixed lettuce seed - the seeds spilled out and got mixed up, and I didn't want to waste them, so there is a nice froth of bright green seedlings to snip at, plus a longer gutter of carefully spaced seedlings nearly ready to prick out in coldframe.

Stored dried beans of various types.

Several clumps of rocket overwintered this year, and no sign of going to seed yet, so we're nibbling at a few leaves of that....the sorrel that I thought I'd dug out at last has bounced back - and the asparagus has broken cover, should have a tiny feast by next weekend!

[artichoke]

Your asparagus is up!?! Envy. Looking forward to mine in about a month's time......

[saddad]

Leeks, savoys, red cabbage from store, PSB. A bit of celery to salvage, kale (nero) and some Babington leeks (stronger flavour and no "fly" damage.. the bulbs make a good garlic substitute) and the sorrel and garlic mustard are putting out new salad leaves..  :)

[green lily]

PSB, masses of curly kale, leaf beet, leeks, carrots, potatoes [from garage..] chard in poly, parsley etc.. glad daughter coming tomorrow to help eat it all ;)

[manicscousers]

red mustard, mizuna, lamb's lettuce and early slald leaves with a couple of walking onions as springies, parsnips and swede from store, red sprouts and leeks and, I hope when we go tomorrow, some sprouting broccoli.

oh tbh, I can`t cook it all quickly enough. I need the space inside and out, ready for the rhubarb season and then it is all systems go all over again,  re preserving and eating. We`re certainly going to have enough for the hungry gap, apart from carrots

[antipodes]

Wow! you guys have loads of things! I am into the planting and sowing now and only winter things are a few leeks and just getting some delicious white sprouting broccoli (which was a happy mistake!). I have no protection up so nothing else can survive here in the winter. Waiting for a couple of Durham early cabbages to get big enough to eat, two survived.

[martinburo]

Thanks to the mild winter, like starwberry1 I have lots to eat, which is as it should be, because it will be late June before this year's plants provide a full complement of vegetables. In addition to some of the above I also have land cress, perpetual onion and salad burnet.

[gwynnethmary]

SPROUTS!  Am not going to plant so many this year!

[Bing]

Purple sprouting brocolli

me too, plus few cabbages

are we talking about indoor or outdoor harvesting?

[cornykev]

I'm on my last knocking of Kestrel Spuds, this is by far the longest they have lasted me, I'm aiming for the whole year this season.   ;D
