I've lost my melons which was disappointing as it was my first attempt at growning them.  Lots of tomatoes but they are outside and not rippening and everything else is very slow.

Not too bad in the West of Scotland

My first ever failure with runner beans, it looks like but most else seems OK where Ive managed to get it out.

Need to get some spuds up though. Fingers crossed Saturday will be dry. I've leeks to get out and more brassicas.

Loads of broad beans and peas to harvest as well. Think Mrs John will be drafted in.

So far the only major casualties I have seem to be the maincrop spuds which are looking suspiciously like they have the dreaded blight, must go take a good look when the rain stops!  Everything else looks ok and fruit is growing great though the strawbs are not as sweet as they cold be, the raspberries are doing well for a first year in the ground and the peas are going wild!  The french beans though are being very slow but still mostly intact so there's hope yet.  Not bad for a garden that was under a foot of water last week.

Will probably loose some potatoes but have more of a problem getting things to grow outside in the first place!

i have lost my swede,turnip and caulioflower row due to the slugs there was a thread some where on here  which i have been trying to find but its a great thread on slugs and different ways to get rid of them if any one can find this link i would be most gratefull.

Same here in Coventry - I've loads of stuff still in pots, nero cabbage , fennel, beans, seems i might be better off leaving them in there as the plot is still too muddy to walk on - thinking hard about raised beds next year. still we'll appreciate the sun when it does make an appearance.

i feel for all you guys and gals that have had a hard time this year - i am feeling guilty that i haven,t lost anything - my sugar snaps were slow to get going - but are going great guns now.

i did protect everything though - to reduce rain and wind damage - and my slug population enjoy john smiths too much to bother my greens

i have made a hot bed outdoors (with a roof) so my cucumbers, melons and squash are doing well also - albeit a bit cramped.

the only thing lost - has been dahlias - they have eaten to the ground - but they are not crops - so i don't mind - and i've got hundreds of em

the summer is on it's way though folks - so don't despair

I have lost all cabbages, red cabbage and romanesco cauliflower.  My sugar snap peas were eaten as soon as they emerged.  One French bean out of about 40 sprouted then completely stopped.  I've got an occasional carrot and parsnip and my borlotti beans didn't appear.  The potatoes and onions don't seem too bad and my courgettes are holding in there although I have lost about 3 for no apparent reason.  Globe artichokes are growing although I've kept a lot of spares as the slugs seem to like them.  The chillis have just completely shut down.  The last time I checked the beetroot was doing alright but generally it is a bit of a disaster.  I've been growing a few things in my garden and these are doing far better than anything on my allotment.

Some things are looking a bit rain spattered and were in need of a bit of warm weather, but the weekend's sunshine has been very gratefully received.

Although I'm very close to the river, I do have the sandy soil that goes with it, so things are quite nicely balanced for me at the minute.

My green squashes could do with a bit more sunshine, as could my butternut squashes.  

But casualities are zero ... for now.

First crop of lettuce got  hammered by slugs, as did the first lot of carrots....that was in April. Since then everything has done very well, my sympathies to everyone who has had flooding and a poor harvest or complete lack of.

Think back to Dec and Jan....more sun in those months. We sat outside in Tshirts more often than not. Maybe we should call global warming.....global changing

[wildeone]

Mind you also lost about 50 parsnips and a row of chard bright lights but that was nowt to do with weather and more to do with random and unannounced activites carried out by well meaning relations.

i'm intrigued !!!
