....yet! But this year has been a struggle to grow anything at the allotment!
The random changing of the British seasons from one week to the next (sometimes even from one day to the next!) and the prolonged wet and cold spells when it should have been warm meant that lots of plants are behind in their growing season.
I have also had lots of problems with slugs and snails who have been enjoying the wet weather! They ate all my courgette and squash plants (even all the replacement ones I planted too!) Luckily I friend who gave me some of her spare plants which are finally bearing fruit!
We have had a good crop from the potatoes and peas. I still have 4 rows of potatoes to dig up yet!
Work on the plot will continue and I hope the rest of the plants will come to fruition before winter sets in!
