Got them!
The rain abated so we got to the allotment in time to harvest this year's first courgettes before they turned into this year's first marrows. In true courgette plant style, we'll need to go again on Tuesday to harvest the next batch.Last weekend I took lots of photos of things growing that I didn't get around to including in a blog entry, so I've put them all together below in a sort of medley format. From the top, and left-to-right, we have: Soya beans, french beans, squash and sweetcorn, celeriac, fennel, white onions and brussels sprouts.

Two Quick Questions if I may:
Are the courgettes in this picture from the same plant in the previous post? If so ... I’m very impressed with the speed in which they’ve grown!!
And
Soya Beans ... OK I’ve never grown soya beans so are they as easy to grow, as say, runner beans? And what do you do with them when they’ve grown? Boil them like all the other beans??
Hi Greenhouse Girl,
Thanks for the comment.
Yes, they are the same courgettes as in the previous post. I'm also impressed by how quickly they've grown this year - I think the secret's in the home made compost!
We've never grown soya beans either. Experience so far suggests they're pretty difficult to get germinated but they grow well once you've got them started.
