Yes Dorothy just one per bucket, another 9 buckets left - not a bad return for a bag of £1 seed potatoes! .. If they're all as good as that one anyway.

Huge radishes, of the 'German Salad' variety from Suttons. Love these sliced into a stir fry, along with the chopped off flower tops from onions which've started to bolt.

One lovely big red tomato from this year's seed, and 2 turnips from under the veggiemesh with NO cabbage root fly damage!

"Spring onions" actually the bulbils from the top of our egyptian walking onions, very tasty! Milder than spring onions but lovely dipped in salt with a bit of cheese!

[Bren In Pots]

Broad bean tops to go in a stir fry.

Just had to have a little dig at the first earlies (foremost) as they have been planted for 9 weeks now.

Not too many yet but I'm sure they will taste nice.

Best of all I've got 4 rows of them.

I also spotted 3 perfect nearly ripe strawberries................tomorrow!!!

Picked my first Bijou mangetout (not just one but a big handful) and a Hispi cabbage.
Eaten steamed with some Rocket potatoes picked a few days ago.
So satisfying when all the veg on your plate has spent its whole life only a few footsteps away from the kitchen

Strawberries. Been watching these beauties ripening very very very slowly over the past 2 weeks, and today they looked like this:


Bloody rain

I ate the red bits anyway.

[Nannysally99]

My first little gem lettuce, lovely size for us two, and tasty

Picked my first courgette of the year this morning.

8 Ball variety.

It is around 4 inches in diameter.

I am going to attempt to stuff it later!

This was grown from seed, courtesy of the VSP!!!!!!

Peas (meteor) - enough for a handful of shelled peas. I love fresh garden peas, one of the treats of the garden

First mangetout and first haricot yesterday (raw whilst walking round the garden) and first proper serving of both today. First turnips today, too. Sunday dinner blow-out
