@purplerallim, @Sheps, I'm very lucky in that my allotment is only 200 yds from my front door. Makes watering etc easy, also means I can just pop over for what we fancy for dinner.
@bertrand-mabel, I've only just started picking the blueberries, it's been blackcurrant, redcurrants and gooseberries so far. I've got 3 large blueberry bushes, looks like being a good crop. I have to net them, otherwise the birds have them all. Two of the bushes were from Lidl , £2 each, no idea what variety, they must be at least 10 years old now. I don't do anything special, the big ones are in 60l pots of standard ericaceous compost, I give them a liquid feed every couple of weeks as soon as the fruit appears.
Climbing french beans cropping well now( fingers crossed they withstand the forecast of high winds 🤞🤞). Cucumbers continue to do well and the blueberries are ripening.
Fingers crossed 🤞 for you @scroggin mine have taken a real battering in the last few weeks and the same again tonight, on the strength of it I've ordered some Dwarf French Beans seeds for next year, the plants once grown should sit just nice below the windbreak and have a lot more protection.
Nice rhubarb @bertrand-mabel I was given some yesterday, just need to decide what to do with it.

You post the most amazing pictures of your produce @scroggin it all looks so good.
I wish I had as big a plot as @scroggin appears to have.
Have to agree @scroggin grows some great looking produce.
