My first tomato this year (Sweet Million.)

Not actually quite ready (I was only really trying to get a closer look but it "fell off"!)  

Tasted rubbish!

Rest of them are nowhere near ripe but I'm expecting better things soon (so is a good friend of mine for whom I'm growing them really.)  

Just goes to show the south is sunnier and warmer. We've been picking Sweet Million for about two weeks. Sun Gold and Bambino followed closely behind. All just beginning to give a full sweet flavour but last year's were sweeter. Patience needed. 

Here's wishing you a speedy ripening crop JayG

Cucumber, mint and garlic for tzatziki, long green pepper, spring onions, leaves and a courgette flower for salad,  and one courgette (wafer thin sliced, dusted with salted flour and fried till crisp....mmmmm)

Just had to add tomato, olives and haloumi for a very satisfying lunch.

Oh nice! I've given up on my corn this year - it hasn't grown at all since i planted it out 6 weeks ago - its all of thee inches high despite feeding, watering and general loving 

Today i harvests some new spuds, some carrots, some beetroot, some lettuce (lollo rosso and counter) some spring onions, some chives and thyme, and a small handfull of raspberries, oh and the first french beans from my dwarf plants! seriously Yum! we had them for tea tonight with the new potatos.

That's a shame about your corn but a lovely crop of other things anyway. We have our minipop in the polytunnel and, having never grown it, we weren't sure when to harvest. There were tassles so we thought they'd be there and they were. Our beetroot isn't playing ball at all this year.

Now that's an idea. Minipop in the ploytunnel.

Thanks, Argyllie

Our beetroot has gone bonkers this year, i'll swap you some beets for some corn!
