I have radish showing and my first early potatoes popped up only to be buried again ;). Indoors and under lights I have some chillies in flower.

Purple sprouting broccoli has come through, plus the perpetual spinach is just starting to come through. I think the pak choi might be coming through as well but can't be sure as yet. Still waiting for the carrots and potatoes to make an appearance.

I have leeks, cabbage, kale and sage in modules in the garden which are doing well. Funny that the first lot of leeks I sowed at the beginning of April took 15 days to germinate but the second lot I sowed in mid April germinated within 10 days, despite both batches being started off indoors.

Been harvesting radishes, spring onions and salad leaves for a few weeks now. First new potatoes should be ready next week and there's beetroot, broad beans, carrots, peas and turnips sprouting away in the veg patch.

Amazing what a difference a bit of protection makes, especially after a cold spring like we've had.

cabbage, broccoli, spinach, carrots, toms, peppers, chillies, onions, shallots, garlic, runner beans, courgette, plus about 20 plug trays (about 60 plugs to a tray) of assorted bedding plants and flowers.  :)

Spuds not showing yet but I did put them in deep so not surprised. Also only just sowed most of my root crops so waiting for them as well  :)
There's more comfrey here than you can shake a stick at!

Went up this morning early, and first sign of peas!  Very excited as that is the first thing that has poked its head above ground. Overwintered garlic that had been yellowing has perked up with some comfrey tea l/o from last year.  Also what might have been the first asparagus spear, but quite possibly wishful thinking on my part.

No sign of spuds.

Onions and Garlic only - in a bit of a panic now as I haven't even opened a pack of carrot seeds and you all seem to have them up already.

Onions, broad beans, carrots, asparagus, kohl Rabi, peas.
When weeding, the best way to know if its a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull it.

If it comes out easy, it was a valuable plant !
