in Fruit & veg
So as some of you may remember, I built (several times!) my veg garden at the beginning of the year and thought I’d post a little update!

Apart from the garlic, everything is doing so well! I’ve kept neighbours and friends in salads and the broad beans are starting to flower, with the peas not far behind. Charlotte spuds are doing well and main crops are up now. I’ve multisown radish and beetroot which are starting to form and the multi sown onions are starting to look stronger. I’ve grown stacks of radish to try pickling them, which I will do this weekend hopefully! Greyhound cabbage has suddenly taken off and the autumn raspberries are doing well! No major slug damage so far but the vine weevil is moving in! Really happy with it! 😀 still to finish the surroundings but getting there! I now have to move it all in between plantings but hopefully I won’t lose out on too many crops and will have more space too! 😬
