  • French beans and peas.

    • A small handful of French beans - amazing I got that many as the plants are tiny! Hope they haven't worn themselves out already!
      Gardening is cheaper than therapy and you get tomatoes

      • First courgette a day or two ago.
        First carrot last week. I don't normally much like carrots, but I can say that these home grown ones are rather good when cooked.
        First raspberries a few days ago.

        • Picked my LAST gherkin

          I only half filled my gherkin pickle jar last year. As regards this year, I have today pulled up my 2 gherkin plants out of the polytunnel. They went absolutely flippin' mental this year and my pickle jar is full (see attached with 2L pop bottle for scale.)

          Specifically grew dill this year so I could put this in, also added general pickling spice and slightly diluted white wine vinegar plus a couple of tablespoons of sugar.

          I am looking forward to our monthly fish and chip treat with a decent pickled wally!!

            • first carrots pulled tonight.

              I had to pull them, as the foliage was ENORMOUS and was blocking the sunlight getting through to the kelsaes!

              I have still left a few in though...

                  • Picked my first cucumber - it was hiding in the bottom of the pot!
                    I think he's rather cute - like Brian the Snail



                    He's sitting on a bowl of Rambling Red Stripe tomatoes that are also rather cute

                        • First ever achocha

                          It wasn't very big, and I think it got a bit overwhelmed in the stir fry I put it in, so I still don't know what they taste like.
