well well well .... look what i found when i opened the cupboard under the staires :)
My first mushroom!! i just kept going over and over the instructions i wasn't giving in!!
Went to the allotment today i haven't been since earlier in the week I've either been too busy or its been raining,so although i had back ache from hell i decided this afternoon to pop down quickly just to check on things as we have had lots of rain and bad wind
sweetcorn is looking bad :( but I'm not alone so is everyone elses on the allotment, the courgettes butternut squash and pumpkin are growing slowly but compared to last year not as well its just been too cold for them.
Strawberries are doing well have lots that are red :):) but underneath they are still pale so I'm hoping the warm weather for the next couple of days will help ripen them some more ... some of them are really big!!
everything else is fine, peas will soon be ready to pick :) i did pull up a couple of potato plants at first i was a bit disappointed i was sure i had more last year but looking back on here at the pics its about the same amount ... i might try a different first early next year....the pentland javelin look better plants in the next row so if the harvest is better i'll go for them
Oh and its the first harvest of the year :)
