lettuce and assorted salad leaves, spring onions, radishes, potatoes, rhubarb, strawberries...but not all on the same plate!

first carrots almost ready for pulling and pea pods starting to swell. Nature has a way of catching up.

Pak Choi. Nothing else is ready yet.

The kale looks like it might be ready within the next month, as will the early potatoes. Everything still seems to be taking forever and a day to get to a decent size.

Lettuce, radishes and almost spinach and chard.  Potatoes in about 2 wks+-

Question - Madame Cholet, how are you getting your onions so early?  Are you growing them in a greenhouse?  Did you plant sets and, if so, when? There's no way mine will be ready in two weeks . But I'm happy for what I have now  :tongue2:

Not much  ::)  Chard and overwintered greens all eaten or bolted now and the May hungry gap is stretching on due to the cold start to spring.

Some oriental greens to eat, asparagus until the last week or so - now letting it make its ferns for next year, some overwintered onions as giant spring onions and I think there may be lettuce ready on the plot.  I am hoping my caulies bulk up, but have been warned they go over fast, so possibly mini caulies later on today as well  :)

Got chard coming out of our ears, lots of rhubarb, first strawberries, radishes.

Dwarf and broad beans are nearly ready, but everything else is incredibly late...

First 2 courgettes, couple of strawberries....

Will have a furtle around at the Pentland Javelin later.....
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 !

Rhubarb, last off!

First new potatoes, Dunluce small but tasty "AND" one strawberry, sweet and got there before the resident blackbird!

Everything has been hard to germinate and grow on this season!
STOP, and smell the roses!

Huge chard leaves, first of the spinach, self seeded lettuce, shallots because I couldn't help myself even though they weren't ready and used them as a kind of spring onion.
