Sorry to hear Aidy and feel your pain...after heat in June (we were away so fortunately held back planting out some things) then the cold and wet July, slugs have been a real problem. Blight took out the outdoor toms and impacted on the spuds. Fortunately had some toms in the greenhouse ripening nicely and living on kale and green beans. Parsnips, carrots and beetroot either didn't germinate, were eaten or just haven't grown. Took up onions early as so wet thought they may rot.
Was hopeful for plenty of squash but since being planted about 3-4 weeks ago have hardly grown at all. Also got fingers crossed that the figs will eventually ripen, late last year and even later this year.....so yes, roll on 2024.
