Hello
have you harvested anything yet? I've got some fat juicy broad beans but it feels too early to pick them! Has anyone else harvested theirs yet? Also should I nip the top shoot out as they are still going north?
thanks muchly

I've started picking strawberries.
Just took few goosegogs and also a few strawberries from my little polytunnel. The cavolo nero is big enough to take a few leaves but I've not done so yet

We've been eating our broad beans for ten days or so now

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Jealous.. my broadbeans are just in flower now. I've had some radishes, and the lambs lettuce is big enough to pick, strawberries are covered in green fruit, I recon they will be ready just when I am away for 10 days.
Hi We are the same as Dove hand beans for awhile now also had few servings of mange tout and a bowl of strawberries. Has anyone had any potatoes yet. PP
Yes, bunches of shallots and a couple of trays of strawberries.
Everything seems to be crawling for me this year, but its also my first year actually committing to a full planting layout in this house. I have sucessfully harvested my first cut and come again of the Mizuna and the Dragon Tongue Rocket (those red veins are so pretty) as well as the Marshalls Mix of radishes which includes the Purple Plum, Scarlet Globe, Sparkler, White Turnip and Zlata. I can't comment on the taste as I hate radishes, mizuna and rocket! Those entire sections of the bed are totally for the other half, but he chowed them down without complaint so assuming they were ok.
Two courgettes last week and one today
. There are lots of pods on the peas, just waiting for them to fatten up. In the greenhouse I have one small pepper forming and some tiny cukes, the tomatoes are starting to flower. Getting excited now
