Courgettes, potatoes, carrots, lots of purple beans. Last of the peas. Kale and Chard. Blackcurrants.  Patty Pan squash - first year and not loving them - they just seem tasteless and mushy.  Gem Rolet squash - only used as courgette replacement so far but will be trying them roasted at tennis ball size.

Sorry, forgot, the swede (Joan) weighed in at 4lb 14ozs. Picked peas,toms,french beans,desiree maincrop pots,cucumber and radish as well. The problem I have with the swede is that I have another 20, more or less just like it. I've never after 23 years of allotmenteering had harvest's like this year. I'ts brilliant!!!!

Choi sum, pak choi and yet another patty pan the size of a dinner plate  :blink: apparently the other plotters have been watering it as its close to the tank so 'they chuck a bit on it' everytime they fill up!   :nowink:
Some baby radishes and a few beans (it's been a poor crop so far as the blackfly got the better of them early on and not setting due to dryness).  Counted 10 ladybirds on my runners including a few tiny baby ones  :)

Have been hopeless on this thread, so it's not daily, but so far, 3 cauli's, 6 mini white cukes, spuds, B/beans, carrots, red onion, radish and a few 'oasis turnip'(don't taste much like melon!) Oh, and strawbs  :)
It's like a jungle sometimes, it makes me wonder how i keep from going under......

today, a bucket of peas and assorted beans plus a second half bucket of runner beans. plus a few early apples looked ripe enough to eat, so a few were picked for next weeks lunch boxes.
