Cabbages are looking fantastic

Oh those cabbage Helen look fabulous. Few warmer days and everything will pick up. I only water 2 times a week the greenhouse tomatoes and they are doing amazing. Wow I have not seen anyone else with runner beans yet, well done you 👍 Enjoy and keep smiling 😊 Allie & Tricia 🤗

Things look good, consider the weather. Our squashes, corn and outside tomatoes refuse to get going because of the cold but it's been great for lettuces.

There is no doubt this is the most challenging year I’ve experienced for weather,but in one way, it’s the same as every year - some crops thrive, and others don’t. It is the best year by a long shot for my peas. That shot of the runner bean flowers shows beautifully why they were initially imported as decorative plants!

That cracked carrot bed looks like the super dry clay soil on the easement below my driveway. But you're right - a bunch of compost will help it tremendously. Your son did a good job in the greenhouse! 👏👏👏 Your cabbages at 4:50 look amazing, and your runner bean blossoms at 8:10 are gorgeous! I think you got off very well for a whole week away! 😊 I never go on any trips until at least the end of September because no one else in my (nearby) family gardens at all. 😂

Luckily we don’t go away in the midst of summer because well it’s too hot it’s too busy (kids off school) and we can’t leave the garden 😂😂. Not looking too bad Helen and cabbages look fab. Hopefully things will perk up with some warm days ahead. Have a super weekend, Ali 🥵36c 🇨🇦

The brassicas are looking particularly healthy and we need warmth and sun!!!😢
