It's been really sunny for the last week or so, we've had to do a lot a watering, and Roger has done loads of weeding...
I'll add some photos shortly, but things are growing really well. The potatos with purple flowers (Maris Pipers?) are looking great, and the white flowered ones (maybe these are the Maris Pipers...) aren't far behind.
Roger's courgette plants are now have little courgettes growing, and the pumpkin plants are also looking good.
I've added a few purple sprouting and brussels sprouts - not sure if they will survive the heat though, but I've got some more in the green house. Also we didn't have any lime, which we are told we need to keep some sort of brassica killing thing away (no idea what it is).
The plot is almost full now, thought we've got a nice empty row where the carrots failed (Roger has dug a trench there now - can't remember what for, and we've room for a lot more pea plants on the pea row (only about 5 grew...).
