Beginning of July 2009

This weekend just gone we harvested the radar onions, and the some of the remaining garlic (there is still some in Henry's bed and with the other onions). We have put them all in the garage to dry out, the shallots and the garlic we brought home last week are drying out really well.

We noticed there are tiny little tomatoes appearing on some of the plants, and courgettes are very abundant all of a sudden ! The melon is now flowering as well, so we are waiting for fruit on that and the cucumbers.

Today we planted a new row of Hurst Greenshaft peas where the broad beans used to be, and also noticed one of the squash plants had come through, all 3 of the pumpkins are through and seem to be doing well. We removed the spinach as it has grown too tall and leggy, and did some weeding and watering.
