3 more problem pics for your entertainment

Now that I've got my iPhone cable back I've actually managed to upload the last week's issues:

I've had a few courgettes like this, they look like some sort of maggot, but I'm pretty sure they're just a part of the courgette poking out of a whole that has developed. My guess is it's due to the hot weather. I still ate it, just cut that bit out.


This pea came out of the pod split like this. Good/bad/ugly?


Is this greenback on my first tomatoes? I know it's caused by too much sunlight (or too little potassium), but is there any way to save these or are they done-for?


Your thoughts are, as always, greatly appreciated.

1 - don't know
2 - good
3 - what variety are they? it doesnt look like it, but I'm not an expert...listen for the tiny pitter patter of experts fingers tapping away....they'll be here soon....

2 - I ate the pea anyway as the rest of the pod seemed fine. I'm not the fussy type.
3 - They're Gardener's Delight. I don't remember tomatoes forming with such a disparity between the greens before and they have had a lot of sunlight lately.

Thanks for your thoughts

Hi Ollie!

1: Dunno - looks weird, but if the rest was fine, go for it.
2: Dunno - But home-grown Peas are soooooooooooooo good, I'd've eaten it too!
3: Dunno - My Toms usually look like that, I never worry.

I know nothing!

mine GD's were like that last year, they went red and all was fine I have no GD's this year but an assortment of other cherry types and they have dark green shoulders. Must be a cherry trait maybe?
