There's just a little bit, but it's not badly affected the crop.

Already had quite a few off, some have made it home as you can see. It took great resolve though!


Those peas looked good enough to eat - made my mouth water. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Not sure how many's lurking, as I've got a canopy of leaves covering a large area. Needed one for the harvest festival at the weekend, and it's the first one I came to - there might not be any others for all I know!Iit's not quite as ripe as I would have liked, but I'll leave instructions!

You forgot to take the Tesco label off it DD!  :tongue2:  ::)  :lol:
Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

One of the best things about being an orang-utan is the fact that you don't lose your good looks as you get older

My mini harvest from my mini plot today. 2 Summer Ball pumpkins, 2 courgettes, my first leek and parsnip (ever) a bunch of late sown carrots and a handful of the last cherry toms.

Thanks BigB, I only have a little plot at home, about 8ft by 22ft and it is the first time I have grown leeks or parsnips so really pleased. Had a good crop of the staples, Onions, spuds, garlic and considering only one courgette plant grew we have had plenty of fruit of it, roughly 2 a week at least. The summer ball plants are great as well.

My courgettes seem to have got their second wind - have picked four for dinner. Do not know how much longer they will last as according to the BBC we are about to have some cold weather.

Im not too sure when to pick my Pumpkins,the foliage has drooped and going yellow!I have some pattypan squash again the leaves are on their way but the pattinsons are very small :(

We picked the last 8 kilo's of beans yesterday though the remainder are bound to be too large,I was thinking of letting them go on so I have some seed for next year :)

Heaps of ripe tomatoes and much more which are still very green! and we pulled the last of our King Edwards!yummy!

there are still hundreds of peppers and chilli's yet to ripen,not sure what to do here as was my first attemp!
