Reasonable progress and strawberries

The weather's been pretty good - some sun, some rain, so things are going ok, especially the globe artichokes (near the back of the picture). The summer squashes are all in (about 10) and are starting to establish themselves. Winters ones aren't so good: greenfly.

Talking of flies, the broad beans had a nasty dose of blackfly. A rare organic success - ecover washingup liquid in a sprayer, then wiping them off, did the trick.

It looks fairly weed free doesn't in? Handweeding has played a big part, but also, sadly, has the Roundup, which has meant that most of the grass is kind of under control.

Final thing - planted a couple of strawberry plants today after realising the existing ones were past it.
