That’s a useful looking chicken coop there Sean and nice looking pumpkins Adam!

Had a fair bit of work on over the last week or two and consequently not been on the vegplot as often as I need. I need to get up there with the strimmer as the grass and weeds are growing a bit too big for my liking.

So far I’ve harvested the spuds from six of my towers with the results being from ok to good. I’ve cut the foliage off the last two towers and I’ll harvest them this week. Very tasty spuds though.

Runner beans are covered in flowers but still very few beans. The purple podded French beans are cropping quite heavily though with most of them going in the freezer for later in the year. Courgettes are doing - well, what courgettes do, and producing like there’s no tomorrow. Had some broccoli and cabbage this evening too and the kale needs picking again.

So strimming and weeding is on the agenda for this week.
