If I remember correctly your plot suffers a lot with slugs doesn't it? My spuds have been lifted, sweetcorn is all done and the cobbs that we had were very good after I thought this year wouldn't be any good for sweetcorn, courgettes slowing down now, couldn't keep up with cucumbers I think that more has gone to compost than has been eaten, runner beans cropping well now, borlotti beans look like a decent harvest after I hadn't seen any blossom, Autumn raspberries just coming into their own now, apples don't look much good and strangely most of my pears have disappeared again I can't work out where they are disappearing to, still have two sowings of lettuce and kohl rabi to eat, digging the plot over as the ground becomes vacant don't want to risk leaving it till winter.
My apples have skin damage, but most are ok when cut into. The cucumbers have produced more than I can use, hence 16 × 2 portions of veg soup in the freezer. As hubby brought me two red peppers tonight, tomorrow is tom soup/sauce day.
The only thing missing in my garden is my tub of London Pride. I had a 12" pot full to overflowing that I had been growing on all year, and overnight it all went, not just pulled out but gone, root,plant, the lot. Just an odd leaf left, not like when birds pull it up and throw it about, nothing. And the next night even the odd leaf was gone. No idea what might have taken it.🤔
