This is the third day in a row I have picked this many French beans, and the pick before them was bigger, so I have concluded this year is a good year for French beans but I think it will end early.
@purplerallim Yes I think this is happening to a lot of us things are very productive but short lived, as in spring the season seems to be compressed, a lot of my Plot neighbours have taken their climbing beans down already because they have stopped producing & dried up already. Mine are ok for now as I was late with them.
Maincrop potato Mozart. They were still growing but other plotholders were reporting significant slug damage after the rains a week or so ago, so I thought I would get them out. There was some damage but not too bad compared to some others.
1 root.
The rest of the crop not bad from 2 full rows. Filled two sacks, in store now.
Nice crop of potatoes @Allotment Boy didn't plant any this year used area for red spring onions ( bought as little bits of grass looking) which cropped well , will get again next year. Tomatoes are slowly ripening but will not have the numbers of last year, mainly due to a third of my crop being Black Russians which were rubbish.
The fruits of our labours, 66 squash and counting. Also over 100 courgettes, cooking apples, 50+ beetroot and the usual herbs, carrots, radish and cucumbers (only 10 this year).
