Just been out to check the gazebo and repeg bits of it in the high wind.
Noticed that 5 of the 8 Burpless Tasty Green outdoor cucumbers growing on
in pots have had their tops eaten off.
Not that they were doing much anyway in this cold wet weather but they
were at least germinated and growing slowly.

The shops will no doubt have ended their planned season of supplying
vegetable plants because normally everything would be out and growing well
by this time.

Not looking a good year for vegetables on the allotment (apart from onion
sets and garlic).

Grump.


Just scoured the nurseries in the local area and found some courgetes and
posibly the last Burpless Tasty Green outdoor cucumbers.

The cucumbers need potting on but not today - they'd blow away!
