So just having theses few things and i know i will carry on harvesting more yet this year it was worth it
:D
You veg is looking good and I'm glad that at least somebody is happy with their crops this year.
I can't say that I'm cropping lot of veg but berries have done well and I'm just boiling last of my gooseberries into chutney.. ;D..must have something to show from my efforts in the end of the year.. ::)
I know its not a normal year but if you get a few bits and bobs its worth it just for the taste ;)
Love the look of your cukes! Mine were put in terribly late but I do hope to eventually get some! Just getting my cougettes and I am off on hols on Saturday :(
Guess I will have to remove the flowers or the plant will be deaded when I get back.
Well done!
Well done. Very green with envy at all those beans.
thank you just been up and picked another bag of beans and a small one of French beans
