Its been a while...

...since I wrote in the blog. Things are going well. This morning I have harvested the first pot of baby carrots. They are sweet and crunchy.YUM! The broccoli is starting to head up, at least the ones I haven't sprayed with Nature's Curator have, the sprayed ones look OK but no sign of any budding yet. The tomatoes have little marble sized fruit on them and the strawberries are fruiting in plenty again but nothing red at the moment. Still going strong with the same lettuce plants but I have allowed two to go to seed rather than cutting their leaves. Hopefully I will get good crops from these as well.I have also let one beetroot go to seed. Potatoes are high but the tubers are small at the moment so I'll let them go further. Spinach is up and getting ready to be harvested but the silver beet is still looking pretty sorry for itself. I don't understand how "the easiest plant to grow" as so many people tell me, just won't take off. Cucumbers have tiny fruit on them - I wish I could remember which ones were the long ones and which for pickling. I'll have to wait I suppose. The courgette in the barbecue is thriving and beginning to flower as is the coriander there. The wicker basket has plenty of spring onions but everything else looks pretty small. It's a constant battle with the Chinese cabbage to stop it going off in a long stem, I pinch it out almost every day.
