I grew Sungold this year and got a great crop, taste fab too but found the skins a little thick/tough in comparrison to the likes of Gareners Delight and Sweet Cherry.

I will grow only one next year as i feel the taste difference between the other varieties and Sungold doesn't make enough of a difference as it's offset by the texture.

I've harvested 5lb's of toms Alicante/Sungold/gardeners Delight/Sweet Cherry and Roma last night and there's till loads on the plants, they're loking as if blight might be a problem now though.
Also harvested 2 Iceberg lettuce and a bucket of salad carrots (small Early Nantes)

We found this skins (of Sungold) a bit tough too but as most of my cherry tomatoes were the same I put it down to the heat weather.

The taste was so different though and they seem to last longer on the vine than other varities.

(I grew: sungold, sweet million, bambino and gradeners delight)

Still got 5 cucumbers on the surviving Marketmore plant, but the plant is going downhill fast now so these will be picked imminently.

That's done very well considering your summer is long gone up there.

We have to grow all the cucs indoors (unheated) here, but I still think it has done very well as this particular plant was very late in growing and fruiting.

Well you've done alot better than me argyllie.

I got 2 cucumbers off 2 plants (one plant died as soon as it was planted so 1 plant really)

Off to the plot for more beetroot and carrots.

The cucs were quite good this year - both varieties. Still didn't go to make up the shortfall, caused by the bizarre weather, in so many of the other crops though.

10 green peppers from two plants which looked like they were dying - still two more plants to go but they look healthy. Lots of sweet million tomatoes.

I have one courgette plant left - should be able to pick a couple of courgettes in a couple of days + lots of new flowers on plant.

I have one that looks extremely healthy too. I'm surprised. It has several firm fruits on it despite it being mid October.

Must be the mild weather Paul - first frost and they will go over. Enjoy them while you can.

I still have courgette plants going strong too. Came home with three yellow ones and two green ones yesterday evening.

Still have cucmbers in the minitunnel and one is almost big enough now, so have that to look forward to.

Brought home some beetroot for roasting too
