Default It's been damp and mild

The garden is running rampant as it is too wet to work, every time it
seems dry enough there is another couple of days of rain. Grrrrrr

But on the bright side; what likes mild damp conditions? Artichokes! We
feast almost daily. For the first time the plants are producing buds down
to the third tier of axils and they are still large enough to eat.

My chili plants have taken off & the 3 inches this week have gone down a
treat. Only problem we have to wait for the yard to dry a bit (black soil).
The non hearting lettuce are zooming start picking next week, fresh
salad....
