Dear iknownothing, the big pictures made it quite an adventure, and your crops look first class.
I should think you feel quite proud.

thankyou for all your kind comments - have really enjoyed growing my veg am looking forward to being able to harvest some more of it although we have had loads of lettuce, some radish and some carrots oh and 3 strawberries so far! my courgette has flowered this morning an it looks like the beginnings of some courgettes, my beans are almost in flower, beetroot almost ready to start harvesting - I just wish i had more space but there is about a 7year waiting list for allotments here!!!

Your photos show a very healthy look crop of veggies there. Hope you'll soon be enjoying eating the fruits of your labours. Isn't it fun watching everything develop for the first time? Actually I find every new growing season brings exactly the same excitment as new life starts again. Amazing what can develop from such tiny seeds!
