July 2014

Garlic harvested, a bit smaller than I'd hoped for. 

Dried in the sun for two days, now in the greenhouse to finish off.







Radish and peas growing.

First radish to survive the slugs - Started off in growbags in the greenhouse, then transplanted outside under bottles until stronger.


Three mindee's planted out their pumpkins at the allotment this week & they made some lovely labels with their names on to identify their own plant. 

Don't plant through cardboard!!!!! Slugs devoured these pumpkins : ( One survived.....

this one! Hoping we get enough pumpkins for everyone from this one survivor! 






Tomatoes starting to fruit 

Onions loosened to start drying off. 
















Even a small harvest : )








One marigold plant survived the slugs.










Butternut squash & a flower close up.


Dwarf beans


End of June 2014



 The first marigold to flower! (That hasn't being devoured by slugs)














Garlic nearly ready to lift.....

              The mindee's growing pumpkin seeds. Very fast growing - great for little ones.
