In addition to the above: garlic scapes. Never had them before. Just tried one and they are fantastic. I now need to sort some recipes or freeze them before they go over.

About 4 pounds of new potatoes, 1 courgette, 20 mange tout, 8 strawberries, and a spring cabbage!

BOOM :)
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 !

I harvested some Shiraz and Kent Blue mange tout plus the first three courgettes.  I think I will hold off harvesting the potatoes until the children are with me.

I am hoping nothing is ready as hubby is useless at harvesting, if it doesnt jump up and smack him with a two by four he doesnt think its ready.  :lol:

Loads of lettuce/salad/radish, spinach, Swiss chard, more Orla and some Red Duke of York potatoes.  Humble but yummy!  :)

Jealous  :(

They're from the Cavilli, one of the not requiring pollinating varieties we've tried this year. Noted elsewhere, none of the Parthenon - the other  not requiring pollinating variety we tried - germinated.
