    Tayberries are doing well and the raspberries and blackberries are loving the rain. Strawberries too have been fruiting up nicely (though will taste foul at this rate with no sun to sweeten them).

    Tomatoes are ok ish but I am letting side shoots grow as the up growth has been so poor in the hope of them flowering and to give them more chances vs stem snapping winds. Beans are naff, all types very slow, and my achocha is a favourite of the slugs, who seem to have aken the nematodes as an invitation to dine rather than keeling over in slimey little piles. Everything else, as it does indeed seem like April, is a good two months behind.

    Oh, and an edible honeysuckle hasn't established and seems to be moulding, but that could just be the plant...

        Strawberries are looking good, however i grew onion and spring onion from seed (first timer) and dont think these this will grow into anything ever lol Tomatoes are finally showing the first signs of flowers so fingers crossed and have carrots that look like theyre doing ok (too scared to pull one up and find out) Will agree with the others comments that weather has been rubbish (im in the North East), Lawn however is doing amazing and as for the snails im thinking of selling to the French!!!!

            Gooseberries - crop is huge this year, raspberries also in abundance, sweetcorn are looking good as is the garlic, potatoes and runner beans. Chillies in the GH seem to have come to a standstill, they're well established plants but don't want to play in this weather.
