Proud of my produce.

Went to the allotment today to harvest my first bumper crop.

Flippin'eck! Looks superb. It's great when all the hard work pays off- well done!

Are those courgettes yellow?

 

[Gromit]

Yep yellow courgettes, we have green ones as well.

 

[palinurus]

I've got yellow courgettes too. Probably yellow marrows since I haven't been for a few days.

Impressive looking broccoli and cauliflower! nice.

All round to Gromit's for tea!

Looks impressive.

Wow! Well done! Mind you, seeing how much you squeezed out of that back yard last year, I never doubted you'd do well.

It sort of looks like a face - was that artistic arranging?

You're not going to pose with the cauliflowers like Jean at St Nicks are you?

Are you going to try and freeze/preserve any of it? Onions and spuds will keep ok, of course, but if you've got more caulis to come, that's a lot of cauliflower cheese!

 

[wafflycat]

I has yellow courgettes too. And lots of differing shades of green ones too.

I'd love to know how you keep the various pests away from your produce? I'm currently sick of seeing slugs and squirrells living off my fruit trees and bushes.

 

[Aperitif]

Great crop!

I guess the trick is to use a 'Gro mit' not a 'Gro bag'

 

[Globalti]

That's a cracking still life, never mind the lovely vegetables! Sharp and a riot of texture and colour.

 

[Panter]

Lovely

Top work Sir.

Seeing that veg got me in the mood, so me and Mrs VC are just back from a blackberrying session along the Grand Union Canal. There is now a big pot of bramble smoothie chilling in the fridge for tomorrows breakfast.... Thanks Gromit.

 

[Gromit]

I have spread the wealth and given some of it away.

I got some enviromesh stuff to keep the pests off. However the veg has grown that much that its burst out from under it. So have problems with white fly and cabbage white butterfly's, who have managed to find themselves stuck in it.

Arch don't tell Sarah, I killed a few caterpillars today.

Unfortunately I can't take credit for the picture my boyfriend Bikepete took it.
