Our first visit to the allotment for 3 weeks having been to France. We had a lovely holiday and the allotment was now like a jungle !! We did alot of clearing up, weeding, watering and also some major tying back, and pruning in the greenhouse - we couldn't go in, as the tomato plants had grown so much !! None of the tomatoes are red though - whcih was what I was hoping for, but that is because they have been concentrating on growing rather than producing ripe fruit ! Now they are tied back and trimmed hopefully we will get some red ones ! Still no cucumbers on the greenhouse plant, but we do have some melons on the melon plant so thats good.
Outside, there were about 10 courgettes which were actually now marrow sized, 4 that were a normal size. We harvested some yellow french beans, all of the remaining peas, pulled up the old broad bean plants, and a lettuce.
