Garlic - the good, the bad and the ugly

Mixed results from the garlic.  Stupidly I can't remember what type they were but the bigger ones have split a bit, but the small ear ones look pretty good. I'm not sure the split ones can be kept too long so currently looking for recipes for garlic jam!


Sweet peas - can't stop 'em!

Sweet peas come thick and fast every time you turn your back. That winter root trainer plan worked a treat!


Tomatoes big and green

Tomatoes are looking good this year.  Quite a few different sizes and still green but I'm sure they'll be ripening soon enough


Padron peppers starting to show

I reckon we might get enough for maybe 2 (small) tapas this year

Curing garlic

Harvest in and starting to cure in the shed.  Not too bad but a few of the bigger (nicer) bulbs have started to split a bit.
