Lifted the last of my early carrots, most of those left were not doing well at all.
Picked two massive bags of broads, chopped the stems down and composted them and dug the roots in.
Since the floods everything is getting munched by slugs and my Savoy's had several large caterpillars on them so discarded. The swede's are struggling with slugs and the Kale are also getting stripped of leaves. Put some organic pellets down as the only recourse.
Dug up the first main crop haulm to see what was under and found a nice crop of Cara. Still a little small so will leave the rest for a while yet.
Runners setting nicely now but not growing all that fast yet.
Sowed a row of perpetual spinach and a row of beetroot. Had some carrots to sow but it started
to chuck in down so will have to wait for the weekend now.
Harvested some calabrese and beetroot and along with the spuds, gave to George who was clearing up his 2 allotments after flooding. He has lost everything.
