My courgettes and french/runner beans are getting huge, radishes should be ready for eating soon, lovely big green strawberries on the strawberry plants so hopefully they will go red if we have a few more sunny days.
I will be sowing my squash, lettuce and spinach seeds soon as well. yummy! My potato plants are also huge now, so should hopefully produce a good crop!

have spent a lovely hour in my friends greenhouse potting up tomatoes, 4 plants each, as I still dont have glass in mine - will get round to it sometime! we are eating spinach and lettuce from the garden, squash and courgettes looking good, as are the peas, seem to like the warm damp weather we have been having.

the squash seedlings are doing well, my bean plants have floweres and so the first little baby runner and french beans have appeared. I harvested my first strawberries and radishes of the season a few days ago and they were delicious! I am now also growing turnips and tomatoes and have a few trays of autumn salad mix growing on the windowsill. the lettuce and spinach seedlings are also doing well. unfortunatly the wind bashed the potatoes and courgette plants a bit but hopefully they will recover lol.
