Vivaldi is second early. I've just read up on them and they can be left as a maincrop but will be a little more floury in texture. I think I'll leave the other 3 bags, give them a second feed and water more and see what happens. The problem is when you grow them in bags you use quite a bit of compost and unless you get a good yield it isn't cost effective.
Well I’ve just emptied a second bag and here is the result I obviously didn’t leave them long enough. Still have 2 bags to go. Will leave them for at least another week while we eat these. Note to self be patient. Have also pulled some lovely beetroot today. I think the one raised bed and a few pots and bags is giving me just the right amount of veg for the two of us.
