Back from hols II - more pics...

The turnips and carrots are getting a bit bigger...

...as is the chard but only three of the florence fennel seeds appear to have germinated - let's hope they were three good ones.

The windfalls have been rotting whee they lie whilst we have been away. apparently the codling moth caterpillars crawl out and straight back up the tree to pupate if they are left lying around. Not much I could do about it this week though. I've picked them up now.

There are some lovely looking tomatoes despite the signs of blight on the foliage. I have stripped some trusses and removed diseased leaves and am playing it by ear regarding picking the rest to ripen indoors away fom the dreaded spores.
