I've planted peas, parsnips and climbing french beans but nothing ahs
appeared, why is that?

I'm getting concerned that nothing I plant will grow!(:-(

Did you remember to remove them from the packet? ;-)

My broad beans are about 18" tall and the sugar snap peas are 5 or 6" and
learning to climb the net.

The weather isn't helping much in Manchester though.

My runner beans are above waist height. Broad beans vary from a few inches
to a couple of feet, & the dwarf beans coming along nicely too. My summer
squashes are screaming to be planted out - already courgettes developing as
the plants are still in pots indoors..
