Currant News

 


Busy weeding, being sick and a week away, I see I haven't posted for weeks.  Yesterday's harvest will have to suffice.

First pickings

 

First visit for over a week, owing to a debilitating tummy bug.  The flash flooding in Edinburgh over the last 24 hrs meant I HAD to survey the scene. 

Broad beans podding up.

Fortunately no plots had been inundated. Phew!
The plot is meanwhile entering the harvesting phase. 


First blueberry to ripen


The salads definitely needing some thinning out




Salads bulking up.


So I went home with some lettuce, leaf beet and fennel.

The early cabbages (Greyhound) have shown signs of splitting so it is harvest time for them.


Brassica Patch

Time for me to get my digestion back in order!
