        Fruit bed, to be honest not a great year for my strawberries, the late frost did alot of damage and to make it worse I was too late putting the nets on so only had a moderate crop



        Brassica bed, what we have noticed this year is under the enviromesh things seem to grow twice as fast, I m not sure if it acts like a little greenhouse but it definately works to grow things faster

                Last one I promise

                Me and my neighbour have half share of a poly tunnel so we put in what we had left over, mostly chillis but also toms, cukes, and melons

                          Brilliant! Gosh, what a beautiful plot. I haven't seen so many varieties of food plants in such a small place since I went to the Horniman Museum gardens. Too bad you're not a YouTuber... I would happily have watched your progress for hours. Thanks for the photos; they're amazing. Everything looks so healthy and you've used the space so well. Just brilliant!

                                Looks gorgeous Maverick, well done. I especially like your runner bean walkway, I'm going to borrow that idea for next year.
