My greenhouse cucumbers are struggling, due to the drop in temperature

Other

We were given a full grown marrow today.


That is good. I don't usually crop mine till late summer. Well, not
exactly
'marrows' as such, but courgettes that have been overlooked.


This is a full sized marrow, one of many.

Could do with a week of sunshine. Long range forecast indicates we'll have
to wait till the 1st July.
