Disappointment

Nothing much has been going on in the plot for about a good few weeks. I think it must be the weather. The plants look healthy enough but just don't seem to eve get any bigger.

While the broad beans are nice and healthy and big looking there is no sign of any actual beans. The nasturtiums have no actual flowers.

and the other beans are doing absolutely nothing.

Courgettes take two.

All of the courgettes that I planted a couple of weeks ago have disappeared now I planted this new one out today. It's covered by a bottle due to the plastic domes having blown away.


Despite all the rain we've had the ground is really dry, which I think must be due to the wind that's been blowing so fiercely. The plants are not growing very quickly at all. No sign of all those beans!

I have a few little Purple Sprouting broccoli seedlings showing through now though. Last time I tried growing them they got  eaten by pigeons so today I built this age over them to stop the birds getting in.  This is the kind of task that I hate doing though. Digging and weeding I much prefer.
