Beetroot 'Cylindra'
Broccoli raab 60 and 90 days.

Noticed that my salsify has made an appearance... exciting!

[Scoot]

Sowed some more swedes yesterday as i have a few little gaps where a few of my parsnips havn't come up. Bit late to be planting Parsnips again so thought I'd slip a few swedes in the gaps.

Mooli, more spring onions, and pre-chitted parsnips.

I've done loads over and since the weekend - red, white and yellow beetroot, yellow and purple carrots, 8 types of summer and winter squash (1 of each), runner, borlotti and blauhilde climbing beans, french and broad beans, purple podded peas and mangetout. Successionally sown radish and salad leaves (think I might be getting the hang of this!) and the last of last years parsnip seed (just in case).
