Might get some chard in later...

Do you use the roots as well


Not here but that isn't to say they aren't usable, I have never investigated... I'm quite happy for them to continue sprouting new stems as I harvest. :)

Not strictly related but on the subject of sprouting again, the minipop plant which has already grown two cobs (successively and successfully) from the same spot is sprouting a third from the same spot...  :unsure:

That's because you talked to them Arugula!

Always does the trick!

I spoke to my new peas today, and warned them about the possibilty of the mildew ghost, and they immediately sprung forth, and became real big pods...;0)

(That's not actually true Growster, is it, {Mrs G})

Er - yes, I did...;0(

A couple of courgettes, gem squash, lots of french beans - I can recommend climbing bean Anellino Giallo or yellow shrimp bean  :)  After a slow start due to the weather, they are producing loads of lovely beans.  Also chard, Aztec Brocolli and Autumn Bliss raspberries  :)

Tomatoes and a couple of pointy red peppers from the greenhouse  :)

quite a bit over the weekend...

A handful of yellow tomatos for lunch on Saturday

A couple of large handfuls of purple teepee beans (very impressed by these - very productive) and a colander-full of chard, both eaten with tea on Saturday

Another cucumber on Sunday, for lunch, and two purple peppers and a few apache chillis to go into Sunday tea.

About 1.5lb of blackberries from the brambles around the local playpark while my girls played on the swings... half of which went into blackberry vodka, the other half will go into a pie today/tomorrow.

And a large bowl of (mostly green) tomatoes, to see if I can get them to ripen on the windowsill.
