Still digging parsnips, very little rust on them. Picked some Chard as well, a good substitute for spinach in fish pie.

Picking a massive bowl like this every other day, luckily there are many mouths to give it too. I had never grown these mixed salad leaves, ready in 4 weeks things until this last year and i am amazed by them, so prolific and tasty. I really thought that i would only get one or two cuttings but they just keep coming back, to be fair i am careful and just cutting off the bigger leaves and leaving the small ones. If you haven´t tried them give your self an excuse to go seed shopping
Teaspoon for reference.
Now i need to decide what we are having for dinner other than saladAttached FilesI grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them

I have harvested golf ball sized radish for my neighbour and they are still lovely and juicy.
For our dinner i have harvested a courgette, broccoli (calabrese) loads and loads of red stem spinach and 3 red Italian peppers although i had to cut some of the bad its off but not letting them go to waste, oh and a couple of baby red onionsI grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them

Lovely harvest tonight, this is my proper first ever cauliflower, only ever had golf ball up to tennis ball size before and millions of failures
And my first ever romanesco, it has been a mixed bag the 7 planted in good sun have done really well but the 3 in part shade are tiny and blew out within a day or 2. Then 10 bought only and month and a half back as quite large plug (i should have known better) are only thumb nail sized
Also picked loads of broccoli side shoots, i nearly pulled up the plants as i have tonnes of broccoli growing but these 8 plants have side shooted enough for several more meals, very happy with them.

Loads of swiss chard that have grown rogue, i helped them on with the odd watering, a reason why you should´t alway let this flower as i have baby swiss plants everywhere most are dying without watering though. All for my friend as i do not like the stuff.
Also 9 broccoli heads, too many must remember not to plant as much next year, even though i tried successional planting, they have all come at once because of a cool spell.
More golf ball radish, salad leaves and some spinach
Have some cauliflower 4 actually but see if they will grow a little more, must check every dayAttached FilesI grow 70% for us and 30% for the snails, then the neighbours eats them
