We were surprised to find that nature hadn't taken over and the plants hadn't gone berserk in the rain, but I think that the cold has kept a lot of plants from shooting up.
An exception to that were the potatoes which seemed to have shot up. Unfortunately we couldn't really mound them up as the soil was just too wet and claggy.
Planted a bed of tomatoes.
Planted seventeen parsnip plants.
Planted just five squashes in one of the bottom beds. Last year they went wild so this year we're giving them plenty of room.
We also managed to plant three outdoor cucumber plants up the "Wigwam".
We picked another small crop of asparagus. It'll certainly be enough to accompany Sunday lunch.
This year the carrots seem to be coming through a lot better than last year.
The celery is doing extremely well but then it is supposed to like it a bit wet.
Elsewhere, the courgettes are doing well.
As are the tomatoes.
And the sweetcorn.
The mange-tout and the french beans are doing well.
Finally, the artichokes are starting to ripen.
