Much excitement, our first cherry tomato

Please describe the experience .... slowly and in great detail  :nowink:

Picked another 3 iznik cukes, they're certainly more prolific than the la diva about 6:1 so far I think,a handful of dwarf purple beans and the few raspberries the birds had left me  :mad:

Lardman, they look fine to me. I grow the small ones.

The tomatoes (four now) are firm and tart and sweet and very tomatoey

Today I am beaned out. A crate of broad beans, far too many courgettes, some peas, land cress, parsley, carrots, potatoes, just over a pound of french beans, two pounds of young borlotti, onions and spring onions. Next door gave me a khol rabi.

I do enjoy a huge plate of mixed fresh veg! :lol:

Dug up all the garlic - quite small but perfectly formed (not bad considering it has been rust ridden since Feb), a couple of onions, peas and strawberries
