Very successful germination of cucurbits has taken place in the greenhouse; 3 black beauty
2 tondo di toscana and 2 zucchini
I'm still waiting for the all green bush and gold rush to show. In cucumber news, 4 mini-whites have germinated
Even the outdoor wonder melons have come through; although I've managed to get them to the flower stage before but never got them to fruit... this year we shall see
I'll soon be harvesting the first crops of the season... the first sowing of mixed salad leaves are coming on a treat in the greenhouse; they're almost at full picking size
I have tried a couple of leaves already and they are extremely flavoursome. For some reaon the rocket leaves sown on the same day are a fair bit behind
I suppose that means a staggered supply so it's not all bad.
... are coming on nicely. I planted these out in the autumn and they have made it through the winter with no problems. Just needed a quick weeding and they are now flourishing.
