![]() Weeded and dug the top couple of beds. ![]() Weeded, dug and covered the old strawberry bed. ![]() Removed the netting from the large fruit cage to let the birds in during winter. ![]() We think we might have a touch of blight so picked all the decent tomatoes and I took everything else from the tomato bed down the tip. ![]() Picked the last of the soft-fruit along with the tomatoes................... ![]() ............ and the first row of celery. Doesn't seem to have made any difference not surrounding them with black felt. ![]() Excellent crop of celery this year. ![]() Goji Berry has settled in well. ![]() As we spent the whole day down here (Janice was bitten five times - a record!) we had a subway lunch; well we were going to the fish and chip restaurant for tea.

![]() Started picking the celery in earnest today. Also a few more red potatoes, though they didn't seem of very good quality and had a few worms in them. ![]() Very near the end of the soft fruit now. Picked what tomatoes were left as it looks as though blight has finally taken a hold. Will have to come down the weekend and get rid of what's left. ![]() This weekends weather, and the next few days, is going to be a scorcher. Felt about 25*C or higher in the sun. Spent an hour picking. This is pretty much the remains of the soft fruit. ![]() Pumpkins aren't going to get any bigger so might as well take them home in case they get nicked. ![]() Best ever crop of tomatoes......... we think. We also suspect there's a little bit of blight appearing so we've bought a lot of orange tomatoes home and also destroyed the foliage. ![]() First pick celery. This too looks like our best ever crop. ![]() Couple more squashes. ![]() Overall, another fine crop of fruit and veg. Definitely looks like being a very good year with more potatoes, loads of celery, a stack of leeks and a fair few carrots still to pick. ![]() Just filled up the water-butts and picked a few odds and ends like the rest of the onions. ![]() One of the tomato plants had fallen across the path due to the weight of the fruit. ![]() Picked some red potatoes and then just odd soft fruit and the odd veg. ![]() Picked what plums there were even though they weren't fully ripe before squirrels, or anything else, got to them. |
